Christmas Caroling in Chapin
Come one come all.... We'd like to extend an invitation to any and all that would like to participate in an evening of fun and fellowship. In conjunction with partners around Chapin we have planned an evening of traditional Christmas caroling. We would encourage our friends and neighbors to join us Monday the 21st and Tuesday the 22nd from 5:30-8pm. We will be meeting on the 21st in the parking lot of Chapin Presbyterian Church located at 600 Lexington Hwy. And on the 22nd we will be meeting at Chapin United Methodist Church located at 415 Lexington Ave. We will enjoy a few minutes of fellowship and light refreshments before breaking up into groups and heading into downtown Chapin. We have 4 designated caroling sites: Hardee's, Boland's True Value, Trucky's, and Vella's. Santa will be at Hardee’s on the 22nd from 6 – 8 pm. We expect to spend a couple hours outside, so don't forget to bundle up. Warm up your voice and lets spread some good cheer. We look forward to seeing you there.

Thanks to all that have made this possible: Chapin Presbyterian Church, Chapin United Methodist Church, Hardee's, Boland's True Value, Trucky's, Vella's, and Chris McClure, Greater Chapin Chamber Community Service Chairman.
