A great Vienna Tradition

The Annual Vienna Church Street Stroll was held last night. It really reminded me what a great Town Vienna is. It is steeped with traditions. The Church Street Stroll is one that's meant to continue for years to come.

This is an event that's enjoyed by all. The street is closed. There is marshmallow roasting at multiple locations. There was a band singing festive music. Santa and Rudolph arrived in an old fashioned super red fire truck. Kids loved the truck as much as Santa. Santa proceeded to meet and greet the mayor and then they together lit the tree.

Plus the Freeman House and Caboose were both open. And there was a petting zoo by the Caboose. This town has so much culture.

The temperature may have been cold and the wind didn't help, but for the evening Church street was filled with people, smiles, joy, and warmth.

What a great tradition and opening celebration of this Holiday Season!
