Bruderheim transformed into a winter wonderland at the Starlight Wonderfest BY MELISSA MACINTOSH-YOUNG
As the holiday season approaches, Bruderheim embraced the spirit of Christmas by transforming itself into a magical winter wonderland this past weekend. The Starlight Wonderfest took place on Saturday, Nov. 30 starting with the AG Society’s Christmas Craft Market at 10 am and ending with a family dance at 7 pm. At the heart of the festivities was a bustling Christmas market. Vendors offered an array of handcrafted goods, including ornaments, baked goods and cozy knitted scarves, making it the perfect place to find unique gifts for loved ones. Visitors were also able to enjoy a truly magical experience, with a horsedrawn sleigh ride through the snowcovered streets of the town. The festivities featured a craft table where children created their own holiday treasures, ornament painting, and wrote their letters to Santa. Families participated in Santa Bingo, and topped the day off with a free meal and ice cream sundae bar. Of course, no Christmas celebration would be complete without a visit from Santa Claus. Children shared their holiday wishes and had photos taken with the jolly, old gent.
