p This campsite at Rocky Point Park has been turned into a reception area for the Gingerbread Woman. It’s all part of the park’s public drive-through evening Saturday. The Milligan family of Queen City has turned their campsite into a Gingerbread land
t Pamela Milligan of Queen City has made a special effort to be the Gingerbread Woman who has run away to live for awhile as a cookie in her cookie house. Her son Mitch Stone is enjoying the evening at Rocky Point Park, too.
Milligans create festive display at Rocky Point Park
Pamela Milligan dressed up as the Gingerbread Woman for this Christmas. Then, she turned the family’s new camper into a Gingerbread home and headed out for Rocky Point Park to be a part of the Lake Wright Patman campground’s Christmas drive-through night.
“I’m just an extra,“ Pam said even though she and her home really did convince several people in the drive-through cars.
The result was an elaborate decoration. It had taken two months in the planning. Her Gingerbread scene had a lighted tent and yard with plenty of smoking food and other lighted decorations.
The Gingerbread Man in the children’s tale was the cookie who ran away to escape the oven. Pam did so, too, but she ran away to the park. There, she was cool and happy on this night. She invited others to stop in.
“I just like Christmas, and I’ve liked going to the Atlanta State Park’s drivethrough each Christmas, so we made the big effort to be here in the Rocky Point Park. This may be my first time, but I’m having fun.”
This seems to be exactly the purpose of the holiday drive-through events in Cass County. The parkers get to dress up, decorate and call out “Merry Christmas.”
