Christmas Parade & Santa- Community Christmas

Our annual Christmas Event, with the Grinch and other fun events, is being held on November 27, 2021 this year. This has been held in December in prior years and it is a very enjoyable event, for adults and children alike!

 

This year, although details are still being worked out, it is being combined with the annual Christmas Parade and Santa At The Courthouse, which is also a very fun event and the kids love to talk with Santa after the parade!
