Don't miss out on Santa Day in Brooten this Saturday! (December 13) You won't want to miss out on this. From
what I have seen throughout the area, this may be the busiest "
Santa Day" around.
The
B-B-E wrestling club is
sponsoring a Candy Cane Dash 5K and 1K. The walk/run starts at 10 a.m.,
and registration is at Trinity Lutheran Church starting at 9:30 a.m.
Kids games will also be held.
A Boy Scouts (B-B-E Troop 66) bake sale is from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
**At
Jana Mae's, local author Les Graham will sign copies of his book "
Jude's Gentle Giants" from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. As I have time, I hope to write a little more about his book between now and Saturday.

At the Brooten American Legion building, a free movie showing of "Ice Age - a Mammoth Christmas" starts at 1 p.m.
Santa Claus greets children from 2 to 3 p.m., also at the Legion hall. Each child will receive a bag of treats.
Free sleigh rides by Horse Power Acres will be from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
All week you can register at Brooten Commercial Club business members for a drawing of
$300 to $600 in Brooten Bucks.
The drawing will be at 3 p.m. on Saturday at the Legion hall. Drawings
will be for $20, and if you are present that amount doubles to $40.
A Parade of Lights will be on main street starting at 6 p.m., where floats decorated with Christmas lights will drive by.
The night wraps up with "Christmas caroling by the fire." The campfire
and caroling will be at the old Brooten high school parking lot
following the parade. S'Mores will be provided.
**Also this Saturday: Santa Claus is in
Elrosa at the Parish Center from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. and then in
Sunburg that night at 5:30 p.m. on main street.
The Kandiyohi County Holiday Express 18-wheeler will bring a terrific show of lights plus the jolly ol' fella to Sunburg.
See you Saturday!
