Saturday night Wonderland

Following the Christmas parade Saturday, Dec. 1, Valley residents are invited to attend what has become "a long-time holiday tradition" according to a press release from the Valley Service Organization (VSO). Winter Wonderland, which will be located in the Great Hall of the Platte Valley Community Center, will return this year.

According to the press release, the VSO's "annual Christmas gift" will feature a free chili and hot dog feed for everyone, along with cookies and hot chocolate. The perennial star of the show, however, will be Santa Claus as he waits to hear the requests of the Valley kids.

"Bring the kids, young and old," said VSO President Merlynn Hoopes, "and enjoy a true family celebration of the season."
