A 'Rime' and a Reason

(‘Twill soon will be the Season!) Believe it or not, there are less than 100 days left until the beginning of the Polar Express season; only 97 in fact! Lately I have been getting many phone calls that start off with the caller saying, “I know it’s kind of early to start thinking of this, but I want some info on the Polar Express.” Believe it or not, it ISN’T early at all; we’ve been selling packages since March, and they’re more than half sold already! We’ve still got most dates available, but if you’re thinking of this wonderful family experience for this year, you’ll want to call as soon as possible while there are still plenty of choices.
