POUGHKEEPSIE, NY Pulaski Park in the city of Poughkeepsie will be the site of a "Winter Wonderland Drive Thru."

The event will take place from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Dec. 23 and Dec. 24.

According to a city spokesman, First Ward Common Councilman Chris Petsas came up with the idea and is being helped by Sixth Ward Councilwoman Natasha Cherry and the city administration.

Mayor Rob Rolison said everyone is excited about the free family-fun event.

"COVID-19 has made it hard for people to gather, but this holiday event will be safe and will undoubtedly bring joy to many," he said.

The public can enter the park on Washington Street in their vehicles and enjoy lighted trees and decorations and see Santa Claus and his elves. No one will have to leave their cars to see the displays.

People are asked to wear masks to the event.
