History buffs and Christmas lovers alike can enjoy a unique experience in Montgomery County. On November 28th, A Soldier’s Christmas will 
showcase life during the most famous battles in history and how soldiers handled life during the holidays. The event takes place in Montgomery County PA’s Graeme Park in Horsham from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm. Admission to the event is free.
The special Christmas event will feature live musical entertainment, crafts for sale, and an assortment of refreshments. Santa Claus will be the very special guest from 12:00pm to 3:00pm and all kids in attendance will receive a very special treat.
During the event, a collection will be taken for active military members servicing overseas. A collection of items for men and women in the military will take place at the event and items can also be dropped up at the park before the event during the regular Friday through Sunday hours, except Thanksgiving.
Suitable items for collection include:
