Implement dealer’s ‘A Very BEARD Christmas’ draws families from miles around
Story and photos by Kyla Hurt
The annual “A Very BEARD Christmas” was held on Saturday, Nov. 30 from 9-11 a.m. A continuous flow of children with families and loved ones entered the doors at Beard Implement Company’s Ashland location, all eager for the fun that awaited them.
The inside of the building was decorated with Christmas decor and a table of assorted plush tractor-themed toys sat near a large Christmas tree and accompanying bench on which children sat to share their wishes and hopes with Santa.
Staff photographed the kids with Santa and the photos were attached to ornaments that each child could decorate and take home.
Children were highly entertained — be it by climbing on the array of farming equipment indoors, riding the barrel train that traveled throughout parts of the building, talking with Santa, creating Beard magnets with pompons and glue, coloring Christmas pages, posing for photos in the holiday tractor cut-outs, or enjoying snacks and drinks.
The event was a great success and indeed, a very Beard Christmas morning of fun and festivities.
