Photos: DID YOU MISS THE CHRISTMAS PAGEANT?

On December 10, 2009, the Index School held their annual Christmas Bake Sale and the children from the school put on an outstanding and fun filled play.

It’s a feat in itself keeping the kiddies organized.  We asked around to find out what the theme was this year and the response was just as much fun as everything else.  “What Are We Going To Do For a Christmas Play This Year” was the response from those involved.

The lighting of the tree in the park is another long standing tradition in this small town.  100+ people gathered ‘round the fire while others mulled around and made new friends during the lighting.

Fire District #28, along with Captain Ernie Walters, transported Santa to the park in a shiny red fire engine with lights and sirens blaring.  Everybody, young and old was welcome to sit on Santa’s lap.

All participants enjoyed hot cider and tea along with some of the fresh baked goodies that were on sale as a fund raiser for the school.  There’s nothing that says Christmas is here, like gatherings in small towns.
