The Petersburgh Polar Express Is On Track

November 21, 2018 By steve bradley

All Aboard the Petersburgh Polar Express on December 15 from 5 to 8 pm. The Town Clerk’s office and PVMCC are sponsoring this annual Town Christmas Party with a new twist.  Bring your bedding and pajamas for a mini pajama party. The evening includes decorating cookies and participating in the Polar Express movie as you ride the train, have hot chocolate and cookies served by elves as well as a gift from Santa. This is open to children of all ages who are Petersburgh residents.

This is a family affair. Parents and grandparents are encouraged to come in pajamas too.  There will be prizes for the best-dressed family as well as for the family with the most generations.

Teenage or older elves are needed to serve the cookies and hot chocolate and there will be gifts for the teenaged elves as well. 

Contact Deidra at 518-658-3777 or DeidraM@Petersburgh.org  to sign up to participate and to make sure there is a gift for your child. (Gifts are needed. Those who are able to donate gifts or funds may drop them at the Town Hall.)

Those who don’t want to do the pajama part can participate as well, but  the conductor might frown at you.

See you on the Polar Express!
