Calling all kids! On Saturday, November 30th, the Henry County Library will kick off the holiday season with a visit from Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus at the Lenora Blackmore Branch in Windsor beginning at 6:30 p.m. There will be crafts, photos taken by Santa’s Helper, goodies for each boy and girl, and the opportunity to tell Santa what you want for Christmas while Mrs. Claus takes notes! This event is presented in partnership with the Windsor 4 Rural Fire Department and the Windsor Area Chamber of Commerce.
There’s more! Visit the Henry County Library in Clinton and the Lenora Blackmore Branch in Windsor from December 2nd – 19th to search for the Elf on the Shelf hiding in the children’s area. Share with the staff what book he’s reading, and you’ll receive a candy cane along with an entry into the Elf on the Shelf grand prize drawing to be held on December 20th.
