Magical Christmas - This Week Events

 

Magical Christmas in Glenwood Living Nativity - December 20th

We are in need of a few more actors for the living nativity.  We have two shifts 4:00-5:30 p.m. and 5:30-7:00 p.m.  (No speaking parts) just be part of the scene.  Costumes are provided and can be worn over warm winter clothes.  Call Kay at 634-3636 if you would like to volunteer.

NOTE:  the Living nativity will be on First Avenue NW the lot north of the Chamber/Welcome Center.  The location changed due to the grounds being to wet and muddy to be able to set up there this year.   

Refreshments will be provided courtesy of Tom's Market outside by the nativity or if too cold inside the Chamber/Welcome Center lobby.  Come and join us as reflect on the "reason for the season".
