Join Us for a Magical Christmas Tree Lighting Celebration!
We are so fortunate to have Buck Ridge Ranch joining us for this exciting day!
Andy and Rachel Lemanczyk have graciously offered to be part of our celebration from 4:00–6:00 p.m. They will be bringing two, and possibly three, reindeer to help make our tree lighting extra special!
Guests will also have the opportunity to take photos with the reindeer, making this a magical experience for everyone to enjoy.
A huge thank-you to Andy and Rachel for helping make our celebration even more memorable!
Beautiful Reindeer from Buck Ridge Ranch
The excitement begins at 2:00 p.m., and we have a wonderful afternoon of holiday fun planned for the entire community!
Food & Refreshments
Maddie Fellenz will be in the museum serving up her delicious treats! We will also have hot chocolate with all the fixings, warm German mulled wine, Christmas beers, and plenty of snacks to enjoy.
Holiday Music
Mary Brendemuehl will be taking the stage with a few of her students to fill the afternoon with beautiful holiday music.
Fun for the Children
The children will have an opportunity to make bird feeders using peanut butter and bird seed. These feeders will later be placed in the trees outside for our feathered friends to enjoy!
After the project, we'll have Christmas movies for everyone to enjoy. We're planning to show Frosty the Snowman and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Popcorn will be available for everyone who would like some!
Christmas Ornament Contest
Adults are invited to create a Christmas ornament and enter our ornament contest! Supplies are still available at the hall, and they are FREE.
Please drop off your completed ornament anytime the museum is open (Sundays, 12:00–3:00 p.m.).
Voting will take place on December 12, 13, and 20. We will have two winners, and each will receive a $20 gift certificate from the North Trail Store!
Children are also invited to make an ornament to hang on one of our indoor Christmas trees. Supplies are available at the hall for them as well.
The Reindeer Are Coming!
Around 4:00 p.m., we'll move the festivities outdoors. The children will be invited to place their homemade bird feeders on the three outdoor trees.
And that's not all! We are so fortunate to have Buck Ridge Ranch joining us! Andy and Rachel Lemanczyk have graciously offered to bring two, and possibly three, reindeer to our celebration from 4:00–6:00 p.m. The reindeer will be available for photos, so be sure to bring your cameras or phones!
The Big Tree Lighting!
At approximately 4:30 p.m., we'll gather together to light our Christmas trees and officially kick off the holiday season!
If you are unable to join us for the afternoon festivities, please come out at 4:30 p.m. for the tree lighting. We'd love to have you there!
This promises to be a wonderful afternoon filled with Christmas spirit, music, activities, good food, and community fellowship.
Parking will be across from Holy Family on Cole Street at the Saw Shop.
We look forward to seeing you all there. Let's make some wonderful holiday memories together!
