Kimball's Christmas Kick-off

Thanks to the dedication of Santa's Helpers in Kimball, entries for Kimball's Annual Parade of Lights more than doubled from last year. Seen here, a traditional barrel train lit up for everyone to enjoy.

Dozens gathered at Larsen's Jewelry Store for refreshments, drawings and door prizes. This is an annual event to kick off the holiday season.

Youngsters took the opportunity to talk directly with Santa while he was in Kimball for the annual holiday opening events.
