LOWER LAKE, Calif. – As it has for the past 30 years, the Anderson Marsh Interpretive Association will again host its annual Victorian “Christmas at the Ranch” open house at the historic ranch house at Anderson Marsh State Historic Park.

The event will take place on Saturday, Dec. 14, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and is free to the public.

The ranch house will be warmed by cheery wood fires. Coffee, hot cider, tea, cookies and other refreshments will be served.

AMIA Board Members and volunteers will be available at the Christmas event to answer questions about the ranch House and how Christmas was celebrated in Victorian days.

The Christmas tree set up in the ranch house parlor will have Victorian-style decorations and Santa Claus will be present at the event for visiting with children of all ages.

Singing along is encouraged as local musicians volunteer their time, performing Christmas carols throughout the day.
