Christmas Celebration at Washington Market Park!

Christmas Celebration at Washington Market Park!

 

The Friends of Washington Market Park are excited about this year’s annual Christmas party. Come help welcome the guest of honor, Santa! This is a great opportunity for kids to say hello to Santa and let him know what they are wishing for this year. This also gives your family a chance to give back. Don’t miss out on the complimentary cookies and hot apple cider. 

Santa will be the guest of honor at our annual Christmas party! Riding to the park in style – sometimes by pedicab, sometimes peddled by an oversized elf – Santa takes requests from children on his throne stationed at the gazebo. Activities with KinderCare. 

FiDi Families Insiders: Consider supporting a local children’s organization and bring an unwrapped gift to the party!

Date: Saturday, December 8th 

Time: 2p -3p

Location: Washington Market Park
