Hometown Holiday in Washington is always something special. This year it is going to be extra special.
This year’s festive evening in Downtown Washington takes place on Friday, Dec. 6th from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. At 6 p.m., the tree lighting fun begins at the Borough Hall with the first of two tree lightings! The WBID Tree Lighting ceremony with Santa Claus then takes place in the Pocket Park in the center of the Downtown at approximately 6:30, following the arrival of Santa by fire truck.
This event, presented by Visions Federal Credit Union, Swift Print Solutions, JCP&L, Good Impressions, and the Washington Business Improvement District, includes many activities, something for everyone.
In addition to the tree lighting, there will be meet-and-greet photo opportunities (bring your cameras!) with Santa Claus at Kids R People 2, Santa’s elves, and other seasonal characters including a host of “Dickens” special guests who will be offering hot chestnuts. They will also make available specially designed photo opportunities featuring the World of Dickens. There will other activities throughout as well as with DJ Mitch Hess playing your favorite holiday tunes. Kathy’s Kove will be hosting its monthly Open Mic as well.
The night will also have free horse and carriage rides (weather permitting)!
