Two St. Charles County churches offered New Year’s Eve alternatives for those who enjoy the spirit of the celebration without the high cost and hoopla.
A First New Year’s Eve Event St. John’s United Church of Christ in Weldon Spring held its first New Year’s Eve Party. The cost was $15 per person for dining and entertainment. The meal was catered by River City Catering; the entertainment was church members providing a “night club” atmosphere, said Bob Lutz, church member and one of the organizers of the event.

The evening includes fireworks, face-painting, music and magicians, drama, illusion, dance and a safe environment.
From musicians and magicians to face-painting and fireworks, First Night 2012 at Grand Center in St. Louis offers something for everyone this New Year’s Eve. “I’m really excited about it this year,” said Travis Howser, director of events and theater for First Night. “It’s a wide range.

Now it is a really family-friendly festival, and we do have a lot of families, but with the range of performances that we have, it’s for everyone. Every age, race, whatever—that’s what I find most exciting about the festival, is that it really covers all spectrums. And there really is something for everyone to see.” The “something” includes a comedy illusionist, interactive …
