Santa Claus was quite happy with the beautiful weather last Saturday in Mansfield. The event, organized by the Maison Culturelle George Bryson for its 12th edition, was a huge success as around 400 people came to visit the different kiosks, according to the organizers

The atmosphere was joyful with music. Twenty five kiosks were present. The various vendors with Christmas food, mainly desserts and fine chocolate, were especially popular. There were also some kiosks with local made products like soap, jewellery and various wool clothing items. Some other organizations like the Chevaliers de Colomb, the outdoor cooperative Hélianthe and the Fort-Coulonge Arena fundraising team were also present. Free hot chocolate was served and hot food was available.
