Keep a Peace of Winthrop With WIHA’s 2021 Ornament

Special to the Transcript

The Winthrop Improvement & Historical Association (WIHA) has announced the design for the 2021 Holiday ornament, “Santa Flies Over Cottage Hill”. 

The ornaments are deep blue, representing the night sky over Winthrop. Santa and the reindeer, led by Rudolph, are shown at midnight flying over Cottage Hill as they make their way back to the North Pole. The message of “Peace”, like last year’s “Hope”, is WIHA’s wish for all.

WIHA has once again enlisted the creativity of artist Susan Saulnier in the design of this beautiful ornament.  Susan is a Winthrop native, now based in Florida. It was her suggestion to use the water tower landmark in the design.

The price per ornament is $12.   Supplies this year are limited. The ornament is available for purchase at Shirley True Value Hardware, Woodside Ace Hardware, The Winthrop Book Depot, Simon’s Winthrop Book Store, The Winthrop Meat Market, Swett’s Liquors, The Senior Center, and Salon Luxo. 

“Santa Flies Over Cottage Hill”, as well as some of the WIHA ornaments from past years, will be available for purchase from 10am-2pm on Saturday, December 18 in the Deane Winthrop Barn.
