Colfax Winter Fest Dec. 13

Colfax Winter Festival date has been changed from Dec. 6 to Dec. 13. The date was moved back a week when Chamber of Commerce officials realized the Colfax date would conflict with the traditional date of the St. John Winter Festival and state football.

Chamber of Commerce officials decided this year to move the Colfax event from a Thursday night to a Saturday. Mayor Todd Vanek Monday told the city council the move was made in an attempt to attract out-of-town residents to the Colfax event.
