NILES, Mich. -- The Niles History Center announced the last chance for visitors to see the Historic Chapin Mansion decorated for the holidays will be on Saturday, Dec.14, from 4 to 7 p.m.

Organizers say attendees will also be able to see the Fort St. Joseph Museum dressed up for the holidays decorated by community groups and businesses for the theme, "Sweet Holiday Memories."

Attendees can expect live music while they take in all the sights.

Organizers will light the way to the Fort St. Joseph Museum next door, which will feature exhibits of Père Noel, the Flying Canoe, and French Colonial Christmas traditions, as well as Rudolph historical memorabilia.

The Museum’s gift store will be open, and a special assortment of books, postcards, and a historical map will be packaged together for $10.
