The Village of Ossining's recreation department has put its late-fall and holiday calendar out in its weekly blasts, and the next few weeks run from a bingo night with a turkey on the line to two evenings at Market Square. Here is what is on, with the details a resident needs.

Turkey Bingo Night, Thursday, November 19

The Recreation and Parks Department's Turkey Bingo Night is in the Rec Room at the Community Center on Thursday, November 19. Doors open at 7 p.m. and the first call is at 7:15 p.m. It is open to village residents, adults only (18 and over), and registration is required through the village site. The format is one card per person, two winners per game and five games in all, and the prize is a turkey with the trimmings for a holiday meal.

Indoor open pickleball runs through November 30

Indoor open pickleball at the Community Center continues through November 30 under a $36 membership, registered at the village site. The schedule, which the department notes can shift around its other programming, is Monday through Friday from 8:30 to 11 a.m., Wednesday evenings from 6:45 to 8:45 p.m., Saturday from 8:30 to 11 a.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

The department also runs pickleball lessons for adults 18 and over at the Ryder Park pickleball court, $50, with registration online, and sells tennis and pickleball court permits for Ryder Park.

Market Square: the tree on December 4, the menorah on December 7

The Market Square Tree Lighting is Friday, December 4, at 6 p.m. The village's After School Rec Choir and the Mike Risko Band provide the music, there is a Christmas train to ride and stilt-walking nutcracker soldiers, and hot chocolate and cookies are free.

The Menorah Lighting follows at Market Square on Monday, December 7, at 6 p.m.

Two standing invitations

Museum in the Streets, the village's free self-guided walking tour, is open around the clock: 25 numbered panels on the architecturally and historically significant buildings of the Downtown Ossining Historic District. The marked starting point is on the north side of the Ossining Open Door Medical Center at 247 Main Street, but any panel works as a first stop, and there is an app for the route.

Theater O, at 25 State Street, is taking enrollment for its theater classes for children ages 3 and up, from acting, directing and playwriting to design, improv and musical theater; 914-487-4322.

How to register

Turkey Bingo, the pickleball membership and the lessons all register through the Village of Ossining's recreation pages at villageofossiningny.gov. The Community Center and Market Square are both in the village, a short walk uphill from the Ossining station on the Hudson Line.
