County Judge Jeff Arey and staff invite you to join us this Monday Night, December 3rd, at 6:00 p.m. for the official lighting of the Saline County Courthouse. The lighting will take place during the Downtown Benton, Inc. Christmas Parade, with Channel 7 News televising the lighting. Right after the parade Santa Claus will make his appearance at the Gazebo. Bring your family to have pictures made and enjoy the cookies and cocoa – all free of charge.

Santa will also be at the Courthouse December 7th, 13th, 14th, 20th & 21st from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. December 13th is our Special Needs Night – Santa will be in the Courthouse to accommodate all our friends with special needs – but everyone is welcome. December 14th is our “Character Night.” Special guests will include Mickey & Minnie Mouse, Smarty the Fox, Rudolph, Batman, Wonder Woman, and many more. Mrs. Claus also might be around too!
