Santa and Mrs. Claus (Phil and Julie Henneman) greeted an enthusiastic crowd larger than in year’s past at Saturday’s Hometown Holiday Parade in downtown Boscobel. From there they traveled to the Blaine Gym to have their pictures taken with scores of youngsters. This year’s parade was moved up from 5 p.m. to 11 a.m. The earlier start and pleasant early December temperatures under sunny skies probably helped the turnout.
