Thank you to Tom Newman and Bob LaTourette for providing, once again, the Horse-Drawn Hayrides.  The children were ecstatic to get to ride with such big and beautiful horses!

The Christmas Parade drew quite the gathering!  The participants of the parade happily smiled, waved and some even threw candy to the children in the crowd that lined Delaware and Bridge Streets.  Thank you to the Dewing Family for giving out free kettle corn at the parade!

Immediately following the Christmas Parade, the Walton Christmas Tree was lit to mark the beginning of the Christmas season!  How exciting it was!

Thank you to Keath Davis of Breakey Motors for allowing us to warm up with Hot Dogs & Hot Chocolate and to meet Mr. & Mrs. Claus as well as McDonald’s icon, Ronald McDonald!  We send thanks to Don Smith for inviting Ronald McDonald to join us once again!  Thank you to Netty’s Flowers for the beautiful decorations, Danny’s Restaurant for donating the hot dogs and to the Walton Lion’s Club for graciously serving these warm refreshments.
