Christmas in the Park moved to a new location in its 21st year, but it was still packed with the same holiday cheer.
The Dec. 16 event was held at the Planteen Recreation Center because its regular home, the Martin Luther King Recreation Center, is undergoing renovations. More than 150 people went to the Planteen center to enjoy free food from event sponsors and family-friendly entertainment from the United Starz Step Team.
Families that registered this year were able to get toys donated by Global Sports Alliance, bicycles, turkeys and non-perishable food items. Two hundred games and toys, 30 bicycles and 20 turkeys were given out at the event.
