Light Up The Holidays

This is the Annual tree lighting event in Warroad.  There are wagon rides.  Warroad Area Women of Today host a cookie-themed bake-off.
Santa makes a presence with Mrs. Claus.  There are carols to sing.  Northern Toboggan brings some toboggans so wish for snow for sledding.
So many activities going on throughout the afternoon leading up to the lighting of the trees.  You don't want to miss out on the festivities.
