The Annual Richmond Christmas Festival will be Saturday, December 10, 2011 at the Richmond Community Building.
Plans for this years festival will include a parade. The parade will take place on Central Street at 4:00. Those who wish to be in the parade please be in line no later than 3:30 so we can get the parade arranged.
The tree lighting will take place also on Central Street in the vacant lot across the street from Beacher Grain. The tree will be lit at approximately 5:45.
After the tree lighting everyone is invited to the community building. We will have a small welcome speech, the a prayer. We will start serving dinner at 6:00. The meal this year will be a choice of Turkey soup or Chili.
After the meal SANTA will arrive. All the children will be asked to come and sit around Santa while he reads the Christmas Story. After the story kids will be invited sit on Santa’s lap and tell him what they would like for Christmas.
After Santa the winners or the House Lighting contest will be announced. The library will also draw the names for the winners of the library Christmas raffle.
Happy Holidays to All!
