Our 32nd Year

                                                                           

Opening day: Thanksgiving 11/25/2010

Thanks to your continued generosity we collected $162 last year and as promissed,

we matched that and sent a check for $322 to the  St. Joseph foundation. to help our

young pals get better and get home to enjoy the holidays with their families.  Our goal

this year is $500.  Please, if you can't donate candy canes drop some money in the box.

We promise that every penny will go towards helping these childeren

We're looking forward to seeing you on Thanksgiving day for the opening.

Interactive operation

The train will start if you flash your high beams at Santa

If you want to park your car, you may press the red button underneath the "History" flyer box.

The train will make 1 revolution around the track and stop in the same place.  

Press the button or flash your high beams again for another revolution.

When the train stops, you are welcome to a candy cane from the candy cane car.

When sensors detect more candy canes are needed, the train will stop momentarily in front of the loader

      (unless the loader is empty).  A yellow light will flash during loading.  When finished, the train will proceed

      to its normal stopping point.

Candy Cane donations are always welcome.  All money donations are matched (up to $500) and sent

to St. Joseph's Foundation to benefit the children in our community.
