Show Opinion DECEMBER 10, Speaks lt97 I I'm always wowed by Kanab's annual Christmas Festival. The decorations, talent, food and music, would put even the crankiest Scrooge in the Holiday spirit. Festival profits this year were earmarked for the new Kanab City Library. While all tallies are still not in, organizers believe that the festival raised over $3,000. We would like to thank and congratulate all who participated in and made the Festival possible. The long hours spent organizing, decorating and carrying it out, did not go unnoticed. While we may have our differences on occasion, it's nice to know that the community can pull together for a good cause.
