Open House visitors may register in the shops for a one-of-a-kind prize: a

Main Street limited edition Depot Christmas ornament, personally signed by artist

Patsy Gullet. Santa will draw the names of three lucky winners at the conclusion of the

Open House.

Shoppers may also enjoy the sights and sounds of an old-fashioned Christmas

when local groups entertain with songs and dancing during the Open House hours on

the south side of the Courthouse Square.

The scheduled entertainment includes:

* 11 a.m. East Fayette Elementary School Chorus

* 11:45 a.m. Dancers (age 3-17) from Miss Patsy's School of Dance

will perform their Christmas dance program

* 12:15 p.m. Christmas carols by the Fayette County High School Chorus

Patsy Alewine, of Miss Patsy's School of Dance, said her group has been

rehearsing since the beginning of October to be able to give their "Christmas present"

in the form of entertainment to the area's residents. "It's a joyous time for all of

us," she said, "and after all, isn't that

what Christmas is all about giving back? We're thrilled to be able to do something for

the community like this."
