Everyone was very well pleased with the events. Legion donation of upstairs hall was a big hit.

We need to discuss if we are having Santa visiting this year because of Covid.
Melissa suggested to still have but have Santa standing and waving.
Discussion was made. Ron motioned to cancel and Michelle 2nd. Results are listed below.


Michelle, Aaron, Ron and Pat all agreed to cancel this year. The rise of Covid is a very serious situation and a concern right now. Also decided to cancel the sleigh rides this year. Melissa still thinks we should do it. Since everyone decided to cancel Melissa will donate the candy that was given to her to the Legion who is still holding their event.


Aaron said the fire department is still having Santa ride around on the 24th. Aaron mentioned the fire dept. patrolled for Halloween and will do Christmas because Santa rides around in the truck and waves.

Ron said we still need help to decorate the park. Decision was made to meet on Nov 30th at noon and December 4th around 1 PM if weather permits. Ron said we had to purchase a new Santa. The old one had a hole in it that we could not repair and the motor stops off and on.

We are still doing Santa Letters so make sure everyone knows this.
