SHELBY TOWNSHIP CELEBRATES CHRISTMAS WITH FESTIVITIES BY KARA SZYMANSKI kszymanski@candgnews.com
SHELBY TOWNSHIP — Shelby Township celebrated its annual Christmas Aglow with all sorts of Christmas decorations and activities to start off the holiday this year on Dec. 6 at the Shelby Township Hall. Christmas Aglow began with Shelby TV’s holiday stage show with the Utica High School choir, and then a drone show lit up the sky to put on a colorful light show in Christmas designs. There were also bonfires and horse-drawn wagons, and attendees made Christmas crafts and sipped hot cocoa. There were also cookies to munch on. This year’s North Pole ambassadors, selected from the Shelby Township Christmas Coloring Contest winners, presented Santa Claus with the key to the township. New to the event was a live animal experience courtesy of the Friends See CELEBRATE on page 17A
