Gingerbread House in a Bag

Beginning Wednesday, December 2nd at 8:30am you can pick up your Gingerbread House in a bag! Your bag will incude a gingerbread house and candy decorations to take home and build with your family in the safety of your own home. After you have finished, email a picture of your house to put it on the Gingerbread Wall in the foyer of Town Hall. This is not a contest we just want to spread holiday cheer!
These bags are on a first come first served basis and there is a limit of one per family. No need to register, just stop by between 8:30am and 3:30pm Monday through Friday.
