Live reindeer will also be at the Olmstead Place Courtyard until 2pm. There will be multiple opportunities for having lunch and cookies with Santa before a visit with Ole Saint Nick from 2 to 4. There will also be fun contests and games, and if it gets too chilly, warming fires in the Farmer’s Market lot. If that’s not enough there will be a Christmas House Tour on Lake Street and an ice sculpture demonstration. At 5’ocklock, streets on the Holiday Spectacular Lighted Parade will close, with tree lighting in the Historic Village at 6:30.

Donations are also being accepted throughout the event with highlighted needs for canned goods, personal hygiene items and winter clothes for those less fortunate.
