Things might look a little different this year, but Santa will make his annual visit to Haxtun next week. As always, Santa Clause will be part of the line up during Haxtun’s Country Christmas slated for Tuesday, Dec. 1 in downtown Haxtun.

Along with a visit from Santa and the traditional chili supper at the Haxtun Fire Hall, Country Christmas goers will also have the opportunity to shop local and enjoy a variety of entertainment downtown at the event next week.

Volunteer firemen plan to serve dinner beginning at 5 p.m. Other events slated for downtown include the FFA children’s Christmas train...
