| Make First Light a Family Tradition |
Snow is here, perhaps to stay. They are calling for warmer temps next week so families should hurry if they want to enjoy this blanket of fluffy white snow. If Mother Nature cooperates, a few of the snow operators hope to open in the next couple of weeks.
In the meantime, kids and parents can take their pick of Santa Claus Parades, Christmas Tree Ceremony Lightings and enough holiday shopping to find something for everyone on your list and more!
And as a special holiday treat, the CP Holiday starts its ride through our area on Sunday! TooT!
