    Sean Giery and his team of Percherons, Jack and Bob, were in the Village of Warwick again with their mascot “Butch,” who enjoys riding shotgun. And visitors bundled up and took advantage throughout the day of a free horse and buggy ride through the village.

Unfortunately, on Nov. 24, the opening day of Home for the Holidays, Sean Giery and his team of Percherons who depend on reasonably good weather, did not participate because of the all day heavy rain.

However, on Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 7-8, the weather was good and they were back for their much anticipated free horse and buggy rides through the village.

And weather permitting they will be stationed on Railroad Avenue offering those rides every weekend until Christmas.

Home for the Holidays is an annual celebration designed to present downtown Warwick as a fun and convenient place to do all your holiday shopping.

And the Warwick merchants want everyone to know that they offer convenience, quality merchandise, special sales, friendly personalized service including gift-wrapping and, in most cases a “wish” list to make things easier for gift givers.
