Santa and Mrs. Claus came to Alden on Saturday with great fanfare riding the Alden Fire Department truck. The children were ready and waiting to talk to them. There were many fun activities happening within Alden City Hall, as well as a few other places. Provided

The Alden Lions Club planned the event and had available face painting, cookies and hot chocolate, many crafts, Alden Singers/sing alongs and, of course, Santa & Mrs. Claus. There were also things to do at local businesses, including Someday Isle, Alden Museum and the Weathered Wagon. Provided
