Smiles, food, games and a festive spirit filled the Hamilton County 4-H Fairgrounds Exhibition Halls during the First Night Noblesville New Year’s Eve event Dec. 31. The event was open to anyone who wanted to attend – not just Noblesville residents. The party began at 7:30 p.m. and ended after a live feed of the ball drop in Times Square at midnight. The event had snacks, drinks, Greeks Pizza, ice cream, Bingo, coloring books and crayons for youngsters, board games and activities, mini basketball, two ping pong tables and a screening of “Despicable Me 2.” (Photos by Robert Herrington.)
