Demonstration Day: A Simple Emigrant Christmas December 11, 2010

Imagine a world where Christmas meant only family, friends and prayerful reflection. Decorations were homemade and traditions were brought from your home country. The magic of Christmas at the Fort is found in the international crafts: tin and paper ornaments, hand dipped candles, and in the music: hymns and carols that have been sung for generations. A simpler time that can be enjoyed by all and perhaps bringing new traditions to your family's holiday season.
