Carousel Christmas

On the first Sunday of every December, the Kit Carson County Carousel animals are decked out in Christmas finery to help welcome the upcoming holiday season. The Wurlitzer Monster Military Band Organ churns out glorious Christmas carols and hot cider and cookies are served in the museum building next to the carousel. All rides, refreshments and the museum tour are free! This year, Carousel Christmas has been canceled due to the extreme cold forecast for Sunday, December 4th.    The gift shop, Hoofbeats, has many carousel memorabilia items, and will be open for early Christmas shopping.  Father Christmas will be present to hand out Christmas novelties to young and old alike. Dress warm!! Riding a carousel spinning at ten miles an hour in crisp winter air is a refreshing and festive experience, but a chilling one!!!
