Tips & Advice

  • Use the trolley to get around town, since stops like the library, the churches and Newby Elementary each host different shows and activities.
  • Grab a scavenger hunt card on Main Street, and look for the trivia and photo spots as you walk around downtown.
  • Go into the local shops along the route, because businesses stay open with special surprises and open houses during the celebration.
  • Leave time for the library and the Boys & Girls Club to see the gingerbread houses and vote in the Adopt a Tree contest.
  • Dress warmly, because performers, carolers and train rides are spread across downtown streets and you will spend much of the day outdoors in December.
