The annual St. J Sparkles Holiday Weekend is a town-wide summoning of the most wonderful time of the year, replete with both twinkling nightlife and family activities. On Friday evening, locals and tourists alike enjoy fire pits, hot cocoa and face painting on Railroad Street, followed by the highly anticipated Northstar Fireworks display. On Saturday, merriment begins in the morning and includes a farm animal petting zoo, horse-drawn wagon rides, Hanukkah activities and a new Sparkle Outfit Competition with prizes. Shine on, you crazy diamonds!
