Carolers, families and children came to the Town Square Plaza for the annual Kent Winterfest Celebration last Saturday.
Presented by the Kent Lions Club, the event included a visit from Santa Claus and a tree and park lighting ceremony synchronized to music.
Local bands and choirs performed throughout the afternoon. The Kent Library provided holiday children’s activities.
Free hot apple cider, hot chocolate and popcorn were served. Activities included a free raffle with prizes for children and adults.
People were asked to bring new toys for the Puget Sound Fire Toys for Joy program, food for the Kent Food Bank and used eye glasses for Lions International.
