Pictured, everyone is all warm and cozy—wrapped up in blankets for the hayride on Sunday evening. There was a distinctly festive air at the Community Center on Sunday when Browerville celebrated its annual Old Fashioned Christmas. There was good food, music, visits with Santa, prize drawings and, of course, hayrides. Riders had a chance to see all of the beautiful Christmas lights and displays around town.
