Now that the turkey is carved and the shopping matches have toned down, it’s time for getting a little Christmas in our lives.
In San Jacinto County, there are two opportunities to ramp up the spirit.
On Saturday, the city of Shepherd will shine with A Hometown Christmas, sponsored by the Greater Shepherd Chamber of Commerce, which will have events, competitions, vendors and parades.
Events begin at 10 a.m. at the Shepherd Community Center with a volleyball tournament, and run until 4 p.m., when the line formation for the parade begins. From 4-6 p.m., floats and parade entries will be judged.
