Ilsa Minor | Daily Press While this year’s Christmas in the Village event was canceled, that didn’t stop Santa from making a visit to the Antique Village at the U.P. State Fairgrounds. The U.P. Steam and Gas Engine Association planned an alternative, “drive by” event to celebrate the beginning of the Christmas season. Above, visitors were able drive through a portion of the village and meet Santa Friday. The two-night event continues tonight from 5 to 8 p.m. The entrance to the event is near the Delta County Commerce Center, and all visitors are asked to bring canned items, which will be collected for local food pantries.
