Ho Ho Hometown Christmas in Garretson

Date:

Garretson’s Hometown Christmas was this past weekend, and despite temperatures dropping and the wind-chill biting, lots of folks still came out and had fun. There were plenty of indoor activities all day long too, from the free community breakfast, story time, and Christmas arts and crafts for the kids as well as a vendor fair. Last year we reported that Kris Rogen had approximately 700 nativity sets on display in her home, this year she tells us that the total number she owns has gone up to an estimated number of 823. And though it was chilly, the Parade of Lights was absolutely splendid, as you can see here.
