ADDY, SAM, Kenzie and Jaycee Baruth got a chance to meet Santa during his appearance Friday at the Sanborn County Courthouse Christmas open house. They are the children of Rob and Melissa Baruth.

A nice crowd attended the annual Courthouse open house held Friday. The Community Choir performed some Christmas selections from their program, “Silent Night! Holy Night!” and everyone enjoyed the Christmas goodies prepared by the courthouse employees.A scavenger hunt kept many of the kids busy looking for items hidden on the trees and Santa visited with the children and handed out candy.
