It’s that time of year again… we need to fill the window at the Watseka Park District for Christmas and this year our theme is…

“Santa Station”

Whatever new items you would like to donate that would make someone have a better holiday is perfect! Toys, blankets, socks, personal hygiene items, diapers, whatever you can think of nothing is too big or too small! We are just going to be Santa’s Station for gifts!

Help us fill the window again this year! We need all of your donations at the park district by November 21st this year so we can coordinate with Toys for Tots for all of their sorting and elfing and such. read more

Tethered Balloon Rides…what does that mean? (At the Ghoulish Goblin Gathering)

That means that you and 5-7 of your closest friends can go 50-90 feet up in the air. The balloon has a door so those with mobility issues, wheelchairs, or other climbing issues are still easily accommodated and can see out the clear door.

Balloon rides will begin at approximately 4:00 p.m. but can start no more than 2 hours before sunset for safety reasons. Hope for a beautiful day and if a hot air balloon ride is on your bucket list…don’t miss this opportunity! read more
