For my Christmas Eve column, I write about the holiday concert by the Pomona Concert Band from Sunday, the one at which I emceed for the first time (tingle!). If I’m any judge, a pleasant time was had by all. Also: the LA 101 restaurant list goes back to snubbing the IE, I ask readers to tell me a hope they hold for 2022 and Redlands is buying an unusual building for its new police HQ: a vacant Kmart.
