So maybe there was no snow. But all the other winter wonderland elements were in effect as Afton’s downtown district held a holiday celebration over the weekend.

The Afton Area Business Association sponsored the “Afton Village Holiday,” which included a variety of holiday activities for every age.

Some of the activities included during the weekend were horse and wagon rides, holiday crafts, breakfast with Santa Claus, holiday shopping and holiday treats.

Originally the event was to have open skating in the park, but due to the recent warm weather orgnizers weren’t able to get a rink ready in time.

The number of participants was less than organizers expected, but that didn’t stop those in attendance from having a joyous time, said Deb Larson, the public relations coordinator for the event.

“It’s just a chance to slow down the hectic holiday pace and enjoy an old-fashioned holiday celebration,” Larson said.
