(KAIR)--A celebration of the Sights and Sounds of Christmas is planned in Atchison Saturday.

That includes a visit from Santa Claus, with the Santa House, in the 500 block of the city's downtown mall, to be open from 10 until 2:30.

From noon until 4:30, various carriage rides will be provided, while Santa's Workshop, for ages 3 through 10, will happen at the same time in the Mall Towers dining room.

Story Time, aboard the Atchison Trolley, will run from noon until 4:00, while the Little Christmas Train, in the 600 block of the mall, will provide rides from noon until 4:30.

Those, and other planned activities, lead up to the evening's “Parade of Lights,” set to start at 5:30.

Winding its way through downtown Atchison, the parade will consist of three entry categories: family, business, and church/youth groups.

Atchison Area Chamber of Commerce President Jacque Pregont told MSC News Friday afternoon 40 entries were confirmed to take part in the early evening parade.

Everyone is invited to take part in any, or all, of the activities, as a way to celebrate the sights and sounds of an Atchison Christmas.
