on marler drive
Love Local, in partnership with organizers of Christmas Lane on Marler Drive, have planned for a very special visitor to be in Camrose the next four Friday and Saturday evenings. Santa and Mrs. Claus will be strolling Marler Drive from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. starting this weekend. They will be hearing Christmas wishes and will be available for photos with any good girl, boy or pet. In addition, watch for boxes along Marler Drive where you can share your gift of a food donation to someone who needs the help you can provide. Nutters Bulk & Natural Foods will be providing free hot chocolate to anyone strolling down the lit-up stretch of streets each Saturday evening. And, to top all this off, Pigeon Lake Horse Drawn Rides will be offering free wagon rides on Friday, December 13, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., made possible thanks to the generous donations made by many local sponsors. Santa is busy preparing for multiple appearances on Christmas Lane this holiday season.
