It’s the season and Wrangell makes sure to celebrate.

The small community got together to not only watch the Christmas tree lighting but also for Midnight Madness, a time when local stores offer deals for gifts and more. The holiday market also drew a crowd looking at all the vendor tables filled with crafts. Santa even made an appearance next door in the civic center. KSTK’s Colette Czarnecki checked out the festivities and sent this audio postcard.
