Yellow Springs Brass! set up downtown on Saturday, Dec. 12, to play holiday favorites about roasting chestnuts, jingling bells, and having oneself a merry Christmas and a joyful Hanukkah. Members of the quintet, from left, Dave Vrooman, Bruce Heckman, Dave Triplett on tuba, Robert Love and Steve Vrooman, collected donations for the Yellow Springs Emergency Welfare Committee. The band will perform downtown again on Saturday, Dec. 19, at 11 a.m. The warmer the weather, the longer their chops will hold up, and vice versa.
