Madison Street was packed with people ready to ring in the new year Saturday night.

A new and improved fiberglass Wylie was lowered via crane while a new Wylie mascot danced on stage with former Port Clinton mayors Debbie Hymore-Tester and Tom Brown.

Horses, cowboys, ranches, gold — round up your cattle and head west during Let’s Pretend: Western Days at 4:30 and 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 28. The program for 3-, 4- and 5-year-olds (no kindergarteners please) is based on imaginary play, stories and songs. The first part of the program is for child only (child must be able to stay in room without a caregiver); for the second part of program, caregivers and siblings of all ages will be welcome to join. Your child will be introduced to books and music based on a theme and then given the opportunity to use his or her imagination to become part of the theme.
