A “snow” day was created for kids and kids at heart at El Cariso Park in Sylmar on Dec 11. Forty tons of snow were used to make a sled hill (top photo) for people to ride down, as well a general playing area. Also on hand were Mrs. Claus and Santa Claus (middle), taking photos with kids and listening to last minute wishes. A ballet troupe (bottom) took advantage of the sunny day to rehearse scenes of the “Nutcracker” outdoors in the park. (Photo/SFVS Staff)
