MELROSE — As part of the Home for the Holidays Celebration in Melrose, the Mount Hood Park Association invites the public to attend their annual and festive “Children’s Holiday Party” at the Mount Hood Clubhouse, 100 Slayton Rd., Melrose, on Sunday, Dec. 6, from 1 to 3 p.m.

Please join organizers for this popular and festive event which includes live musical entertainment, a visit by Santa Claus and children sing-alongs! Refreshments will be served. This year they have invited back the Balloon Magic of Yarrow, who will entertain children with his amazing balloon magic — twisting them into various shapes and given to children in attendance.

This year they have added a free children’s raffle with an opportunity for them to win exciting holiday prizes. Each child will receive a raffle ticket upon attending this event and they can put it toward a chance to win a prize of their choice.

All children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. For more information, call 781-665-8172.

The Mount Hood Park Association is dedicated to the promotion, protection and preservation of Mount Hood Memorial Park. To learn more about the organization, go to their new website at www.mthoodpa.com.
