Holiday Walk December 6, 2013
You'll revel in all things Christmas while strolling Madison Street during the Holiday Walk. Horse-drawn sleigh rides, photo opportunities with Santa and his reindeer, a marshmallow roast, face painting and merchant open houses featuring special sales, refreshments and more are among the treats awaiting you -- but the highlight is the shopkeeper's windows - featuring creative and sometimes humorous live holiday displays. You've never seen anything like it - not even on State Street! The Holiday Walk begins when Santa arrives by fire engine to light the Christmas Tree in Constitution Court (Thomas and Madison) at 6 p.m. Then bring your camera for a photo op and visit with Santa from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at Forest Park National Bank & Trust (7348 Madison). Don't miss the live window displays and don't forget to vote for you favorite window!
