Santa loves wheeled rides too!

Fire up your favorite ride and cruise to Charles City, IA to our beautiful Main Street & Central Park for our 

Santa's Shine & Show.


We all know that it's warmer in July in Iowa than most places, and that's why Santa chooses to spend some of his vacation right here in our town!
