WINONA LAKE – Get in the holiday spirit Dec. 5 during Winona Lake’s annual KringleFest, an event for the entire community. In previous years, the event was held at Rodeheaver Auditorium. This year, however, it will be hosted at the Winona Lake Senior Center. KringleFest, which began in 2009, will take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Dec. 5. It’s for anyone in the community, not just Winona Lake residents, according to Winona Lake Limitless Park Dept. Director Holly M. Hummitch. During the event, there will be holiday train rides; Jingle Bell, a live Christmas reindeer; free crafts and $1 crafts; and snowman and snow fort building, weather permitting. Kids of all ages can shop “in secret” to purchase a gift and wrap it for a loved one. Each ticket for a gift is $1. Santa Claus will be on site for the traditional photo opportunity. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own camera to capture the memory. Any donations received during the event will go to the Winona Lake Limitless Park. For more information, call Hummitch at 574-267-2310.
