The eight annual Temple Terrace Garden Club's Sunday in the Park event attracted people from all over Tampa Bay, including Westchasers.
The event held in Woodmont Park found was decorated with gingerbread figures, wrapped presents, and tinseled Christmas trees.
There were vendors selling plants, carpets and soaps, as well as civic groups handing out their brochures and swag. A tool sharpener even filed garden tools.
The highlight of the event each year is the arrival of Santa Claus on a Temple Terrace fire truck. He and Mrs. Claus greeted children, who told St. Nick what they wanted for Christmas.
