The art department has been hard at work in preparation for Elkader's first holiday light show that successfully kicked off tonight! It runs through December 31st with festive events every weekend, made possible by Main Street Elkader and Elkader Area Chamber of Commerce. The students who created this fun project were Mya Gregerson, Neva Hill, Shelton Keene, Reese Kuhse, Blair Scherf, and Kaylie Wilson. Special thanks for the extra help from their families, too. It was a great group effort.
