Last-minute holiday gift givers – we have the solution. If you can find someone without a subscription to Navarre Press – buy them one. We have a three-year deal that can be split up into three different subscriptions – or just give yourself two more years – and a friend one year. We will send them the bill next year – unless you tell us otherwise.

The Pensacola Little Theatre kicks off “Snow Queen” this weekend. If you are an all-access subscriber, we have tickets available. If you aren’t an all access subscriber, we can help you with that. If you are a regular subscriber and would like to have access to theater tickets, ice hockey tickets, concert tickets, symphony and opera tickets, you can upgrade to “All Access” and the remaining time on your basic subscription will automatically become “All Access.”

No matter how much I am determined for Christmas to not catch me unprepared it does – except for the year we went out of town for two weeks during Christmas. I was prepared for that one – especially because the trip itself was the only gift we gave that year.
