        <Name>Fun Things to Do Around Flagstaff This Weekend</Name>
        <Summary>Meet Santa, Ski, Theatre, Skating and Luminaries Display ~ All in Flagstaff!</Summary>
        <Description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"&gt;If you are a downhill skier, the place to be this weekend is &lt;a title="Arizona Snowbowl snow conditions report" href="http://www.arizonasnowbowl.com/winter/snow_report.html" target="_blank"&gt;Arizona Snowbowl --- the ski conditions are &amp;ldquo;the best in years.&amp;rdquo;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt; Here are a few things for the rest of us:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a title="Flagstaff Nordic Center" href="http://www.flagstaffnordiccenter.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Flagstaff Nordic Center&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; is open for cross-country skiing on groomed trails, snowshoeing, and snow play. The &lt;a href="http://www.snowplayaz.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wing Mountain Snowplay&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; forest service area is also open for fun in the snow, including sledding, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and just plain playing in the snow.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Santa is coming to&amp;nbsp;Flagstaff&lt;/strong&gt; to take orders this weekend. &lt;a href="public/item/192480"&gt;Click here for a list of predicted appearances.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;The residents of several northwest Flagstaff neighborhoods, commonly known as &lt;a title="Focus on Coconino Estates neighborhood in Flagstaff AZ" href="public/item/192401" target="_blank"&gt;Coconino Estates&lt;/a&gt;, will present the Flagstaff community with a lovely &lt;strong&gt;luminaries display&lt;/strong&gt; beginning at 5:30 p.m. on &lt;strong&gt;Sunday, December 16.&lt;/strong&gt; There are two ways to see the annual display &amp;ndash; on foot or by driving by. Both are free (except for your gasoline expense if you drive). Local streets will be closed in the Coconino Estates neighborhood. &lt;strong&gt;Guests enter at the Bonito and Thorpe intersection and proceed north on Navajo Road from the Marshall Magnet School area.&lt;/strong&gt; Traffic is one-way. If you wish to &lt;strong&gt;walk&lt;/strong&gt; it, the light hike is about 3 miles and you should bring a flashlight. Bundle-up even if you &lt;strong&gt;drive&lt;/strong&gt;, because you&amp;rsquo;ll want to roll down your windows to hear the carolers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you missed the &lt;a title="FSO performance of Nutcracker Suite" href="http://www.flagstaffsymphony.org/prognotes.php?w=tchaikovsky_nutcracker&amp;c=concert.php?c=3" target="_blank"&gt;Flagstaff Symphony and NAU Prep Dancer performance&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Nutcracker&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; earlier this season, this weekend presents four more opportunities to &lt;img alt="Canyon Movement Company Nutcracker Poster" hspace="3" src="http://annheitland.smugmug.com/photos/232233996-S.jpg" align="left" vspace="3" border="0" /&gt;experience this holiday musical event,&amp;nbsp;with a modern twist. &lt;em&gt;Canyon Movement Company&lt;/em&gt; will present its fourth annual &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a title="Canyon Movement Company Nutcracker-inspired performance" href="http://www.canyonmovementcompany.org/events.html" target="_blank"&gt;Nutcracker Suite in Modern Bare Feet - a 21st Century Interpretation of the Holiday Classic&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, featuring guest artists and choreographers from the Flagstaff community.
