Families from around the area filled the Environmental Center at Jeffers Bend in Hopkinsville for the annual Christmas at the Bend Saturday.
Coordinator Charles Turner said about 200 people came to the event and helped make Christmas cards and ornaments, and learned about safety.
He said children also enjoyed storytelling, holiday music, refreshments, and were able to visit and take a picture with Santa Claus.
Thanks to the Honorable Order of Kentucky Colonels and H&R Agri-Power, Jeffers Bend was received an early Christmas present — a Kubota Utility Vehicle.
Honorable Order of Kentucky Colonels’ trustee, Jan Camplin of Muhlenberg County, stated the organization only gives grants to nonprofits in the Commonwealth and this year they helped provide a utility vehicle to Jeffers Bend.
After the Kubota presentation, a drawing was held for a new $150 bicycle which was won by Kaleigh Law.
