It is the week before Christmas and all is not well at the North Pole. Santa has received notice that the Reindeer are on strike. The strangest animals step up to offer their services. Who will pull his sleigh on that very special night? Find out and join in the fun at the Oliver Library’s Annual Christmas Puppet Show on Wednesday, December 12th. And the fun will continue when we meet Olive, the Other Reindeer and everyone will have a chance to make their own unique reindeer ornament.

This Free event for families will start at 7:00 p.m. on December 15th and will include an hour of fun, seasonal stories and songs and some great prizes.
