Enjoy Christmas in Baxter

Get ready to walk through a winter wonderland at the Baxter Christmas Festival and Breakfast with Santa. The events kick off at 8 a.m. Dec. 14 at the school building.

A holiday favorite, Santa Claus will stop by for a breakfast treat from 8 to 10 a.m. Kids can stop by to tell him all of their Christmas wishes and get a little candy, too.

The Baxter Christmas Festival kicks off at 9:30 a.m. with a variety of activities available until 11:30 a.m. To start, those entering the gingerbread contest can drop off the entries from 8 to 9 a.m. in the west gym. The creations will be on display for voting from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. with the winner announced at 11:15 a.m.

Also in the west gym kiddos can stop by to pick out the perfect present for their favorite grown up at presents for parents. Bethany Church will be holding a cookie sale and creative vendors will be on hand to sell their fun and beautiful creations. The gym will also hold a silent auction featuring trees, wreaths, baskets and much more.

The east gym will be filled with carnival games from past favorites, including a snowball fight and golfing, to fun new activities themed around the holiday season.
