Kringleville
The 2025 Kringleville season kicks off with the Parade of Lights down Main Street in Waterville at 6:00 on Saturday November 29. This is when we welcome Santa back to his home-away-from-home in Castonguay Square!​
​
Free visits with Santa in his cabin start the next day and will be held every Saturday and Sunday 1:00-4:00 PM through December.

Fun Fund
Give the gift of fun to another child this season with our Fun Fund: all donations will be used to gift admission to our programs and events to a family that otherwise may not be able to participate.
This project was born through the idea that as a community we can come together to offer opportunities to play to all children.
​
To donate, please use the button.
The Fun Fund is intended to provide admission to special events and program or for the use of an Annual Membership. To use the Fun Fund, please send us an email to let us know!
