Lectures on the Civil War and doll making lessons are also provided. The year 2001 will showcase an Antique Tractor Exhibit and a Threshing Bee. A parade of costumed characters lead Santa Claus as he arrives to town in a horse-drawn sleigh. The parade winds through downtown, ending with the City Christmas Tree that Santa magically lights. The annual Christmas Tour of Homes is a big draw on Sunday.
Local homeowners decorate for the holidays and invite the public to tour.
There is a Horse-drawn Trolley Tour of Christmas Lights in the evening to top off the weekend.
