It’s the most wonderful time of the year, but it’s also the busiest! While you’re running here and there and all around the square, you aren’t left with much time to cook dinner.
This Tuesday, treat yourself to a McDonald’s dinner between 4-8pm AND support the Dixon High School choir program at the same time. You’ll hear some holiday music that is sure to put a smile on your face!


Wishing our DHS choir and band a wonderful evening as they dazzle us with their talents! #BePurple. #MusicEducationRocks
