DECORATE-A-WREATH CONTEST
The 7th Annual Decorate-a-Wreath Contest is here. Pick up a wreath from the Rec center beginning Nov. 3. Take it home and decorate it, then return your decorated wreath no later than Dec. 3. Community members can vote for their favorite wreath during the ‘Christmas in the Park’ event on Dec. 6. There is no fee to participate and we will award the “Best Business” and “Best Individual” following the event.
LETTERS TO SANTA
Send your letter to Santa from Strasburg! All letters will be forwarded to the North Pole, (no postage necessary). Santa has promised to respond with a personalized letter. All letters need your child’s first and last name along with a RETURN ADDRESS (please print clearly). Mailboxes will be available after Thanksgiving until Dec. 18. Look for the RED mailboxes at Strasburg Rec Center, 1932 Burton Street; Strasburg Post Office, 56691 E. Colfax Ave.; and Dulce Espresso & Bakery, 56551 E. Colfax Ave.
