Colchester Holiday Hayride tradition continues

by Sylene Argent

Community members filled two large trailers on Saturday to enjoy the annual Colchester Holiday Hayride.

  Though this year’s festivities had to go on without any snow, Santa was able to greet the event participants at the launch site, Colchester North Public School, to wish every participant a happy holiday and hear Christmas wishes from his young friends.

  Local OPP constables and firefighters of Essex Fire & Rescue helped safely guide the tractor-pulled hay wagons along their scenic, winter route.
