Holiday Celebration set Dec. 4

The City of Norman's 18th annual Holiday Celebration will take place Dec. 4 at Andrews Park.

The event will begin at 5:30 p.m. and will include free hot chocolate, cookies and popcorn for all ages and there will also be moon bounces for the kids. Parents can bring their own cameras and take free photos of Santa with their children.

Rumor has it that Frosty the Snowman and the Merry Moose will be walking around the park handing out candy canes and posing for pictures. The evening will be highlighted by Mayor Cindy Rosenthal flipping the switch that will light up Norman's biggest and brightest Christmas tree.

Musical entertainment will be provided by the Monroe Elementary School Manyawi choir, the Dazzler Drill Team and the Jackson Elementary School honor choir. The night will be capped off with Norman's Holiday Fireworks Show.
