December 14: Snow in the Park
Don’t get us wrong, we love our perfect year-round weather and palm trees, but one day of “fake winter” fun is a blast. Bring the little ones to Donnelly Park for snow sledding, ice skating, and holiday entertainment.

Celebrate the holidays with those in your community! Police officers, library staff, and community leaders are throwing this festive party for the little ones with games, food, fun, and of course, a visit from Santa himself.
