It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!
|
|
Yes, the holiday season is almost upon us and we are making plans to continue with some of our traditional events and to add in a few new ones as well. The Annual Holiday Party is scheduled as always on Friday, November 24, right after Thanksgiving. The time is 4-8 pm with the arrival of Santa to the Plaza at 5:00pm. Santa will visit with children in the Plaza until 7:00 pm. We are currently booking entertainment including the Windsor Children’s Chorus, the Healdsburg Community Band and Community Chorus, the SRJC Charles Dickens Carolers, a clown and face painter and weather permitting the carriage rides. Something new we’re adding this year is a Downtown Holiday Window Decorating Contest. We will encourage shoppers to visit each participating window by providing them with a passport style folder that each participating business will stamp. The filled passports will then be entered into a drawing for a selection of prizes and gift certificates. This should have a lot of local shopper appeal. More information about this contest will follow shortly.
Plans for the Tree Lighting, the Annual Holiday Inns Tour and the Menorah Lighting are being completed and we will have information about dates and times, soon.
