Christmas fun in New Bremen

Christmas came early Wednesday with carols and a bearded visitor from the North Pole at the New Bremen Senior Citizen Center. Above, youngsters from the ABC Center in New Bremen sing songs of the season for an appreciative audience that included some of their grandparents. Santa Claus put in an appearance following a carry-in dinner and checked to see that everyone was on his or her best behavior before leaving with a hearty "Ho-Ho-Ho" accompanied by jingle bells. Numerous door prizes were awarded.
