All Aboard for the Wintergreen Express

Wintergreen Arts Center and Katahdin Trust Company are teaming up for the 7th annual Wintergreen Express.

With the purchase of a $10 roundtrip golden ticket, each passenger climbs aboard Presque Isle Historical Society’s Molly the Trolley who magically transforms herself into THE WINTERGREEN EXPRESS.  As the conductor punches tickets, riders enjoy a special holiday trip to the North Pole (Wintergreen) where Santa’s Elves serve hot cocoa and sing songs.  Everyone gets to decorate sugar cookies, visit with Santa, and take home a jingle bell souvenir.

Rides are intended for children ages 10 and under.  All children must be accompanied by at least one ticketed adult.  Time of departure is to be selected when purchasing tickets.  Trolleys depart every 20 minutes from Gentile Hall at the University of Maine at Presque Isle (UMPI). Friday, December 13 from 5:00 PM to 8:40 PM, Saturday, December 14, from 4:00 PM to 8:40 PM, and Sunday, December 15, from 4:00 PM to 7:40 PM. All tickets are roundtrip from UMPI to Wintergreen and back to UMPI.
