It’s that time of year again, Christmas in Kalona is upon us. This annual event takes place on December 5th in downtown Kalona. The full day of holiday festivities will include a tour of churches, a toy drive, cookie decorating, carriage rides, ornament decorating, ice skating, and of course a visit and photo opportunity with Santa. These events run throughout the day beginning at 9 a.m. with festivities finishing up at 8 p.m. Renea Pickard Director of the Kalona Area Chamber of Commerce, told us that she hopes everyone enjoys a wonderful day of family fun.
