## About

Celebrate the season in Canadian County at Wild Horse Park with A Very Merry Mustang. This lively family tradition features the lighting of the city's giant Christmas tree by the Mayor, surrounded by thousands of illuminated lights lining the park's lake and walking paths. Kids can board the festive Mustang Holiday Express miniature train for a scenic ride through the park, participate in interactive holiday games, and create seasonal crafts in Santa's workshop. Santa and Mrs. Claus arrive in grand style aboard a Mustang fire truck to greet eager children for free holiday photos. Local school choirs perform holiday classics, and families can warm up with hot cider, cocoa, and cookies.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Paved paths wind throughout Wild Horse Park, connecting parking lots, playgrounds, and the community center pavilion smoothly.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Heated public restrooms and private nursing areas are available inside the Mustang Town Center directly adjacent to the park.
• Age Suitability: Great for infants, toddlers, and young school-age children who will love the train ride, playground, and fire truck Santa arrival.
• Sensory Tips: Fire truck sirens announce Santa's arrival at 5:45 PM; the rest of the evening features gentle community singing and cheerful ambient music.
