Christmas in Coleridge event set for Nov. 24

COLERIDGE — “A good family fun filled evening,” said Jacie Burbach about the annual Christmas in Coleridge event.  Burbach is a Coleridge Community Club member.

The Christmas in Coleridge is just that, a way to help promote the importance of family time, as well as to help bring the community together to kick off the holiday celebrations.

Saturday, November 24, the evening’s festivities will begin at 5 p.m. lasting until 8 p.m.  Just like last year, all events will be held at the Community Building.

Youngsters will be able to visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus. After whispering in Santa’s ear what they are hoping for this Christmas, Mrs. Claus will have a special treat to share with the children.

The Community Club has supper covered for the evening.  Hot beef sandwiches, hot dogs, and chips are on the menu.

Throughout the evening, bingo will be going on, with prizes for those who are able to get five in a row on their bingo cards.

“It’s fun to watch and see what the participants come out with after their chance at the wind machine,” said Burbach. The wildly exciting wind machine will be making an appearance again this year. Throughout the evening names will be drawn for a chance to stick your hand in the machine and grab for cash, maybe you can be one of the lucky people to grab a fist full of cash.

The wind machine was made for post prom, forgotten about until last year when it was dug out from the archives. It was so popular last year, the Community Club members wanted to bring it back.

Many local businesses donated to help make Christmas in Coleridge a success yet again this year. Several sleds and board games were donated to this event. This year lucky winners will have the chance to pick a number and receive the wrapped prize with the coordinating number.
