THE RIDGEWOOD NEWS
I was the student. She was the master.
Last Friday, in preparation for my role as an elf at the Ridgewood Guild’s Winterfest on Dec. 15, I had to call resident Barbara Kiernan.
Kiernan, according to Ridgewood Guild President Tony Damiano, is the premier elf of the three-year-old community event.
Gracious enough to allow me to be an elf and write about it, Damiano spoke gratefully of Kiernan, a member of the Guild’s advisory board, who even made her own elf costume.
“She is like the Energizer Bunny. She has so much energy,” he said. “Her heart and soul is in whatever she does.”
Damiano noted that the event, which took place the past two Saturday afternoons in Van Neste Square, is held to promote downtown shopping and dining and complement the Downtown for the Holidays celebration sponsored by the Ridgewood Chamber of Commerce.
