Santa pays a visit to Clarksville’s place for family fun!
November 28, 2010
Clarksville, TN – After enjoying this year’s Thanksgiving Feast and shopping marathon, head out to RiverView Mounds Century Farm and spend some time relaxing with your loved ones. The farm is offering pictures and visits with Santa among many more activities.
After accepting their award this year for Clarksville’s Best Place for Family Fun, the Rineharts immediately contacted the North Pole to find out if Santa would be able to return this year. The North Pole management has been able to accommodate their special request, but, Santa’s busy schedule will only allow him to participate four weekends this year. Luckily, he is joined by Rudolph, his elves and even Mrs. Claus! [Read more]

Christmas in Wonderland
Lana’s Dance Center hosted their version of the children’s classic “Alice in Wonderland,” to a packed house at the Music/Mass Communication Concert Hall at Austin Peay State University Saturday evening. The program featured almost 200 of Lana’s students ranging from age 3 to adulthood, and 35 support personnel whose hard work made it all come together.
The show consisted of 2 acts with 27 scenes. As with any recital the audience empathized along with children driven to tears by stage fright, to enjoying performances by those whose gifts were clearly showcased. The Queen of Hearts, The Alices, and the Cheshire Cat were the highlights of the evening. However each and every child gave their all, and every parent should be justifiably proud.

Take a moment, close your eyes and picture Santa Claus.
You have probably just pictured an older plump man with a bright, fire engine red, fur trimmed coat with matching hat, a broad black belt and gold buckle. He would be wearing shiny black boots, with a full mane of long white hair curled perfectly at the ends. You have just pictured Mr. Haddon Sundblom’s 1931 depiction of St. Nicholas for the Coca Cola company! That famous print not only boosted Coca Cola sales that winter, it set the standard for what we know today as Santa Claus.
So if that is not Santa Claus, who is? [Read more]
