Members of Stevenson Memorial Hospital's Auxiliary are as busy as Santa's elves as they prepare for a number of upcoming holiday events.

The traditional Tree of Lights ceremony will take place beginning at 7 p.m. on Fri., Dec. 5. Gather outside the front doors of the hospital and watch as the giant tree is lit up for the season and then head to the cafeteria for some carols and refreshments. Note, parking at the hospital is free for this event.

The following morning you can bring your children to have breakfast with Santa in the hospital cafeteria. There will be two sittings; at 9 a.m. and at 10:15 a.m. Tickets are $5.50 for adult and $3.50 for children under 12, but must be purchased in advance at the Gift Shop in the hospital, or you can call 705-435-0324. Free parking will be provided in the lower parking lot at the hospital for this event.
