The COVID-19 pandemic has created problems around the world, including the North Pole. The North Pole Kansas in Arkansas City, that is. Because of the virus, the traditional display of ceramic buildings at 500 S. Summit St., will be scaled way back this year to allow for social distancing. Kanyon Gingher, who spearheads the annual display, said that the fundraising event began 15 years ago and grown larger every year. The display normally contains more than 650 unique lighted buildings atop more than 50 tables. This year, the display will be reduced to about 200 buildings on 30 tables.
