Northfield Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Todd Bornhauser and Tourism Director Lisa Peterson stop by the KDHL Studio to give us details about this Thursday's Winter Walk in Northfield.

This is the event where a movie was shot last year and has been shown a number of times this holiday season on the Hallmark channel.

I will learn about many of the specifics along with you. I do know they have horse and wagon rides and there is a Snowflake Ornament Hunt. There are 36 participating sponsors and a number of other contributing sponsors for the event. KDHL and Power 96 are proud to be among the contributors.

Some  of the events being held benefit others.

  • For example, Bursch Travel, at 309 Division St., will be hosting the Northfield YMCA Togetherhood Committee. They will be providing complimentary gift wrapping services with donations going to the Northfield Healthy Community Initiative. There will be hot cider and live music performed by Sasquatch, a saxophone quartet composed of Northfield High School students.
