Wichita on the Cheap

Live the Good Life for Less & Never Miss a Deal

Bringing in the Greens at GPNC

Here’s another Wichita place where Santa will be stopping by this year. It’s the fun annual tradition of Bringing in the Greens at GPNC.

Bringing in the Greens at the Great Plains Nature Center

Kick off the holiday season with an evening of music and family fun.  Join the Great Plains Nature Center staff for their annual tradition of caroling, bell ringing and decking the halls with boughs of cedars and hand-made ornaments!

 

You’ll decorate cookies, make Christmas ornaments, and (of course) learn about some Kansas wildlife along the way. Plus, meet Santa, enjoy storytime with Mrs. Claus, hear musical guests, and more.

If you need to do a little holiday shopping, The Owl’s Nest gift shop is right there in the building. (See our article on Seriously Great Local Gifts Under $20)

Date: December 7, 2018
Time: 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Location: Great Plains Nature Center
Cost: FREE
