What was once limited to a special day for just Casco Kidz Zone owner Lisa Cochart's students has now evolved into an event you can bring your children to while helping out those in the community.
Christmas in Casco originated as a Christmas-themed day at the children’s center, where Santa and his reindeer would come to help make memories for the kids and their families. After collaborating with the village and area businesses, the event was opened to the public in 2021. The event will still feature Santa and his reindeer, but members of the Paw Patrol will also join them for photo opportunities and other activities.
The free event does come with a charitable component after collecting socks last year for the Sock Donation Tree. This year, the event is collecting donations for the Andy Barta Legacy Charitable Fund, which raises funds to support Kewaunee County families impacted by cancer. You can also donate boxes of snacks that can be distributed to children of the Luxemburg-Casco School District.
Christmas in Casco runs from 11:45 a.m. to 1:45 p.m. at the Casco Kidz Zone 1 location on Applewood Street in Casco.
