Christmas events were held all over the Pontiac this weekend. Starting with a Festival of Lights in Bryson on Friday evening, then a Christmas party in Otter Lake on Saturday and finally two parades on Sunday afternoon, one in Chapeau and one in Campbell’s Bay.

The Equity managed to speak to Santa, who was busy jumping between all events, at the Otter Lake party. When asked for a comment he said: “I’d like to wish a Merry Christmas to all and hopefully everybody will have plenty of food and a good time this year. It’s been a couple of years that it’s been rough. So I think it’s time now for everybody to enjoy themselves. Merry Christmas to everyone.”
