A Night at the Nicola North Pole!!

The Nicola North Pole transformed into a cozy winter wonderland for an evening of holiday magic! WCHC staff and their families gathered for a festive celebration filled with laughter, creativity, and plenty of cheer.

From hands-on crafts and cookie decorating to festive snacks and photo-worthy moments with Santa, the night was all about slowing down, soaking in the season, and making memories together. 🎅

Seeing the space glow with holiday spirit—and watching kids’ faces light up — made this second Nicola North Pole one to remember.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the night so special. We’re already dreaming up what’s next! ❤️
