“Mister I” tells a story with puppets at the Elks’ annual children’s Christmas party at the OAP Hall on Saturday afternoon, and Mr. Flowers brought his popular balloon creations to life for the children.
The party was another success for the Elks Club of Aldergrove, with kids lined up for a visit with Santa Claus as well as free photos with the jolly old fellow and entertainers that also included Madam Butterfly’s face painting and complimentary snacks for the kids.
Santa Claus and his helpers were also the highlight of the “Light Up Aldergrove” Christmas Parade through downtown later that Saturday evening. Big crowds turned out for the day’s family oriented events and lined the streets, bundled up in heavy coats and blankets, to view the 50 floats in the evening parade.
