Peters Township lights up for holidays
Elizabeth Kosir, 4, smiles at her opportunity to visit with Santa Claus.
Evie Grimm, 3, shows off her holiday craft.
The holiday lights are on at Peters Township Public Library.
With no snow to be found, Santa Claus had to arrive at Peters Township Public Library in a conveyance other than a sleigh.
And so the friendly folks with the local fire department gave St. Nick a ride to his appointed round: Light-Up Night, heralding the holidays on a chilly but relatively dry Sunday.
The Children’s Choir from the Bible Chapel provided musical accompaniment with a series of seasonal favorites, including songs they will perform when the church’s South Hills campus hosts “Home for Christmas: A Musical Production” at 7 p.m. Friday and 6:30 p.m. Sunday.
Then the lights went on to proclaim “Season’s Greetings” in front of the library, and the lights of a fire engine heralded Santa’s arrival.Everyone in attendance followed him into the building for warmth and refreshments .
Along with telling the jolly man in the red suit what they want for Christmas, children had the opportunity to make a little gingerbread house that they could take home with them.
