Winter Wonderland at Lago Mar

Both fun and snow are forecast at Lago Mar this season as the Texas City community transforms into a Winter Wonderland from 2-4 p.m., Saturday Dec. 9. The new Lago Mar recreation center at 12519 Gales Point Drive will sparkle with holiday lights and 20,000 pounds of snow for the event, which also will include a giant inflatable snow globe and pictures with Santa. Children can try their hand at cookie decorating and other holiday crafts. The event is free, but those attending are asked to bring an unwrapped toy to donate to Toys for Tots.
