An old-fashioned Christmas is waiting for you at the Strongsville Historic Village, 13305 Pearl Rd., just north of Royalton Road.

Christmas in the Village will run 2-5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 8 and 9.

The eight buildings and the grounds of the village will be decorated in the style that covers the 150 years the village represents.

You can tell Santa your wishes, see the model railroad display, make gingerbread houses with Girl Scouts, buy some presents at the Olds General Store, enjoy Mrs. Claus' refreshments, participate in a settlers' celebration with the Bristol Family in the log cabin and more.

Free parking is provided. Call 440-572-0057 for information and visit strongsville.org to learn more about the Strongsville Historical Society and Historic Village.

This is a free event but donations are welcome.
