Boys Town held its annual Christmas Festival on Saturday, featuring a wide variety of entertainment, including a visit with Santa and his reindeer.
Organizers were pleased with the turnout. "We have a large crowd this year," said Director of Community Programs Tom Lynch. "We really promoted it. We wanted the public to come and learn about Boys Town."
"We made close to 5,000 cookies and about 4,800 frosting cups and we're fully prepared to make about 250 gallons of cocoa," said Food Services Director Robert Tapio.
