The Wichita Park & Recreation Department has a fun, festive and FREE event planned for this December. Winter Wonderland will bring holiday cheer to Naftzger Park along with the Mayor’s tree lighting on Saturday evening, December 11, 2021.
(In years past, the Mayor’s tree lighting was held at Old Town Square. Naftzger Park is a new location for it!)
