Kids flocked to an unfamiliar sight — a mountain of snow — as parents looked on during the 21st annual Holiday Fest at Islamorada’s Founders Park on Dec. 5. Organized by the Islamorada Chamber of Commerce, the fun-filled evening included visits among families and their kids with Santa Claus and pictures by the towering Christmas tree. Young tykes also spent time doing arts and crafts and decorating cookies courtesy of Publix Supermarket. At the amphitheater, dancers from On Your Toes Dance Studio wowed the crowd. Food trucks kept hungry patrons filled, while vendors showcased their goods as the perfect holiday gift. Ornaments decorated by local artists were on display and up for bid throughout the evening.
