Children of all ages will hunt for the Yule log and bring it back to be cut and put into the fire for good luck in the coming year.
Bring goodies to share or share your creative talents in the Gingerbread and Holiday Baking Contest, which is open to all ages and all skill levels. Learn how to ring the chimes to play holiday music and taste the community’s delectible deserts while warming yourself by the great fire. Beverages will be provided by FOSLS.
