Children lined the street in downtown Herscher on Friday as they awaited the arrival of Santa Claus for the 29th Christmas in Herscher celebration.

Christmas tunes performed by the Herscher High School marching band grew louder as the parade escorting the man in red neared the crowd.

Ho ho ho’s could be heard from atop the firetruck as jolly Old St. Nicholas waved and smiled to all in attendance.

The festivities continued at the Herscher Legion Community Center for pizza and pictures with Santa.
