After the movie, the crowd was treated to a delightful surprise: Steve dressed up as ‘Baxter the Bear’, bringing huge smiles to the kids as he led them out of the theater and into the heart of the celebration. From there, families flowed into a festive scene filled with ice sculpture demonstrations, arts and crafts activities, and vibrant vendor booths that showcased the best of our local community.

It was a heartwarming day full of laughter, creativity, and connection — and Baxter stole the show! We’re so grateful to everyone who came out and helped make this winter celebration one to remember.

Thank you to our partners, volunteers, and every smiling face who joined us. We can’t wait to do it again next year!
