The First Annual "Holiday Country Charm" sponsored by the Huntley Park District and co-sponsored by the Huntley Chamber of Commerce, Huntley Lioness Club and Tricia Clancy, was a huge success. This year's crowd topped approximately 100 children. Eyes twinkled and grew larger as children watched Santa step down from the fire engine he arrived on. Thank you to J.H. Patterson Lumber for their donation of plywood for the ice sculpturing and the McHenry County Salvation Army for their donation of coffee, tea, hot chocolate, hot cider and their time to serve it.
