Police and village officials estimate that more than 1,000 people jammed the village Sunday for the annual Holidays in the Village celebration.

So many people came to shop in the stores, listen to carolers, and enter to win more than $8,000 in toys and gifts raffled off by Sawyer Motors, Sawyer Chevrolet, and Ward Backhaus that police had to close Main Street to vehicular traffic.

“It was a tremendous Christmas in the village,” said mayor William Murphy at Monday night’s Village Board meeting.
