Tree Lighting Holiday Celebration on Saturday at North Hills

November 18 2009 Leave a Comment

Christmas at North Hills

It’s that time of year again. I don’t know about you, but I’m pumped!

I love finding gifts for family, picking out a Christmas Tree (only losers use fake trees), putting up lights, going to Holiday parties and listening to Christmas Music (Trans Siberian Orchestra is great for this).

North Hills is getting into the spirit, too.

Their Holiday Open House is  Thursday, November 21 from 6pm-8pm. On Saturday, November 21st, there will be a ton of great festivities at North Hills, starting at 3pm with Ice Skating on the Commons, crafts for the kids with Mrs. Claus, and miniature pony rides.

Throughout the evening there will be Horse and Carriage rides, a trackless train and appearances by elves, Frosty, Rudolf and Victorian Carolers. Special guest, Pam Saulsby will introduce Santa Claus for the lighting of the tree at 6pm.
Here’s the full schedule of events for the holiday celebration on Saturday
**Bring a camera! Children will have a chance to sit on Santa’s lap after the lighting of the tree. Activities will continue until 7pm.
