On Sunday, December 18, at 1:00 p.m. residents of the Valley can enjoy an afternoon of an old fashioned Christmas at the East Coulee School Museum.
“We’re calling it Christmas in the Coulee,” said Owen Thompson, manager of the East Coulee School Museum. “It’ll be a nice afternoon of being with your family.”
Attendees will be treated to an afternoon of pony rides through town, homemade Christmas cookies, and music. The Rosebud men’s choir will be making an appearance to sing for the event.
This is the first year that Christmas in the Coulee is being done. In previous years East Coulee residents have put on other events, such as a medieval Christmas.
“We were batting around ideas of what to do at the East Coulee school museum,” said Thompson. “We decided on something traditional, less commercialized, and that families can go to reconnect with the season.”
For those wishing to attend, admission to the festivities is by donation. If interested in getting involved, contact the East Coulee School Museum at ecsmuseum.springfest@gmail.com or 403-822-3970.
