Winterfest is almost here!!!

Fireworks, Parade, Santa, Art, Trees Thursday, Dec. 7, 3-5:30 pm

Santa Claus visits the Colfax Library on Thursday, Dec. 7 as part the community’s annual Winterfest Celebration. Santa will hear requests from area children from 3-5:30 p.m., just prior to joining the lighted Main Street parade at 6 p.m. followed by a fireworks grand finale from the town's hillside. The library will provide crafts for kids and optional photos can be purchased.

Besides Santa, the Festival of Trees and stunning Artwork will be on exhibit in The Center for the day and for the entire month of December. Community members are invited to vote for their favorite tree, view the art, enjoy a cup of hot cocoa from the Whitman Hospital booth, or purchase tickets for a Raffle Tree sponsored by Pioneer Title Company. All proceeds will go toward a roof and other needs in The Center.

Artists on exhibit with items for sale are: Vicki Broeckel, Ken Carper, Greg Kessler, Bob Krikac, Nancy Rothwell, Rob Smith, Henry Stinson, and Carrie Vielle

Entries for the lighted Christmas parade are still welcome with information available from the Colfax Chamber of Commerce at 553-9729. For more details regarding Santa and the Festival of Trees, contact Whitman County Library toll-free at (877)-733-3375 or 397-4366.
