Happy New Year! Thank you for all your support through 2024, and we look forward to bringing you more news and stories from Garretson/Sherman in the coming year! We keep the Christmas spirit going in this issue, because we want to celebrate the joy of the season all year round. Enjoy more Santa letters and Christmas drawings! Also, the Garretson Youth Wrestling Blue Dragon Tournament was a huge success, basketball updates, and much more.

**Due to the New Year's Holiday, delivery of this week's physical Gazette will be later than usual. It will be on newsstands this Thursday afternoon! To make up for the delay, we are making this issue available online for our e-edition and mailed subscribers. Thank you for your support!**
