LE MARS CHRISTMAS KICKOFF
Christmas in Hometown Le Mars was held Saturday featuring a full day of activities, shopping, and entertainment. The evening was capped off with a 6 p.m. program that featured a tree lighting, music by the Brown’s and dancers from Central Dance Academy and the Turn Around studios. Cheryl Wells told KLEM that the day involved more than 150 community volunteers, plus a team that helped produce the evening performance.
The nativity featured two live camels. MIke and Cheryl Wells spoke to the large crowd at the Olson Cultural Event Center with a special Christmas message.
Sage Mescher, the daughter of Chad and Jill Mescher of Le Mars, was chosen in a drawing to help light the Christmas tree. It was also announced that the business “Piece of Cake” was the winner of the Chamber holiday window contest.
Cheryl Wells says they already are thinking about next year’s festival.
