Things to Do, Dec. 6-13, 2019

Outdoor gear sale

If you’re looking for sporting goods – from climbing gear and kayak paddles to packs, boots and bike helmets – there’s a wide selection of equipment to be found at Cornell Outdoor Education’s annual Gear Sale.

New and used outdoor gear will be sold Dec. 7, from 9 a.m. to noon in the Ramin Room of Bartels Hall. The sale is open to everyone; come early for the best selection.

The sale features equipment for activities including, but not limited to, snowshoeing, cross-country and telemark skiing, climbing, camping, mountain biking, backpacking, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, rowing and paddleboarding.

Lessons and Carols

Lessons and Carols at Sage Chapel, an annual audience favorite, returns for performances Dec. 8 and 9, both at 7:30 p.m.

All free advance tickets for both nights have been claimed, but check cornelltickets.com periodically for availability as tickets get returned.

Doors at the south entrance of the chapel (nearest the Cornell Store) open at 6:45 p.m. for ticketholders. Willard Straight Hall is available as an indoor waiting area. The event is all-ages; e-tickets can be on a smartphone or printed.

Tickets expire at 7:15 p.m., and any empty seats will be made available then, to those in the standby line at the north entrance (nearest Olin Library) as capacity allows. See the event FAQ
