Christmas with the Calhoun County Library

             Santa Claus visited the Calhoun County Library during the Cookies with Santa event last week.

Cookies with Santa was held on Tuesday, December 17, 2024, from 3:30 PM - 6:30 PM and we had over 200 people come to celebrate this holiday season. We started the event with Santa flying in on his reindeer, bells ringing as he walked into the library, since we don’t have a chimney to come down! Santa was happy to take pictures and listen to what every boy and girl wanted for Christmas, but he already knew since he has read so many letters lately! Between taking pictures with Santa, we had bunches of craft stations ready to make stuff like ornaments for your trees and paper reindeer. Of course, we couldn’t have an event without snacks so we had treat bags of cookies and fresh hot chocolate with whipped cream and sprinkles! That wasn’t the end of the event though. The fun didn’t stop there.

Porkchop Productions performed at 5 PM with their play “Holly and the Secret Santa.” Holly, one of our favorite elves, was putting together a secret Santa party and guess who she pulled to buy a gift for: Santa himself! She then had to figure out the best gift to get him. We don’t want to give too much away, but we do want to say that the play was really funny and gave all the viewers a very special message. It doesn’t matter what gift you give to someone or how much the gift costs as long as you gave it with love and put thought behind it. Porkchop Productions always put on a great show and give even greater life lessons that we want everyone in our community to remember.

Thank you to everyone who came to visit us during Cookies with Santa. We hope that everyone had a great time both at the event and with family and friends over the holidays. Next time you read an article from us, it will be 2025!
