Santa Claus to Visit Gray Village

The Gray-New Gloucester Lions Club and Gray Recreation Department are once again sponsoring Santa’s annual visit to Newbegin Community Center on Main Street. The free holiday event for the whole family will be held on Sunday, Dec. 16 from 2-4 p.m.

Enjoy a horse drawn sleigh ride from 2-4 p.m., special children’s entertainment from 2-3 p.m. Santa himself will visit from 3-4 p.m. Polaroid photos of your child with Santa are only $2 each and Santa’s elves will be passing out goodie bags, ice cream and warm beverages.

A Village Walking Tour Calendar

Several years ago Thomas Bibber created a walking tour of Gray Village for a Boy Scout project. Historical Society President Louise Knapp has expanded his original idea into the new 2008 Historical Society Calendar. Each month highlights a photo and information about many of the historically interesting buildings in Gray Village. The cost of the calendars is $10 for Historical Society members and $12.50 for non-members. To purchase your keepsake calendar, call 657-4297 or 657-4811 soon, before they’re all sold out. What a nice holiday gift for someone on your list.
