It was almost cold enough to snow, but it didn’t. Instead, it rained a lot during the ninth annual Christmas in Pitt Meadows at Spirit Square on Friday.

That didn’t stop Santa and his wife though from showing up and pushing the button for the lighting of the Christmas tree.

Bruce Waugh carved a snow sculpture castle while the Lions service club served up hot food. The Beauty Shop Dolls sang on the main stage while Christmas carols continued indoors in the family recreation centre where there were arts and crafts, games and stories and a chance to see Santa.
