Magnolia kicks off the holidays

November 22nd, 2008 · 36 Comments

The Village Holiday open house drew a good crowd last night, despite the fact that the rain started falling just minutes before the tree lighting. This is year 32 for the open house sponsored by the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce.

The evening started off with the tree lighting at the Magnolia Garden Center with carols led by the Magnolia Camp Fire group.

McGraw Street was closed to traffic and merchants invited everyone to visit and enjoy snacks and libations. This is the kick off to the holiday shopping season and a nice effort by our local shops and restaurants. The Magnolia Voice urges readers to consider shopping local whenever possible this year.

Santa was in place in front of ACE Hardware handing out treats to kids.

At Cocoa and Cream crowds lined up to sample ice cream.

At Leroux they were handing out grown up beverages.

And nothing says holiday season like a bunch of grown men in Santa hats!

I don’t know how I feel about Christmas festivities already happening before Thanksgiving is over. I tuned into 106.9FM and they already had Christmas music. Although Christmas music is always good during a ride home.

It’s hard to think about Christmas when the economy is in the deep hole that it is. We need to think about how we can help each other stay well!

Maggie, getting together as a community like this DOES help us stay well. Especially when times are a bit tough.
