SHOP LOCAL

25 local vendors will be onsite. It's a great way to get into the Christmas spirit, support local and find unique, quality items. Local vendors will be selling everything from fresh holiday wreaths and pots of greens, to jewelry, woodworking, wine and baked goods.

FOOD

Bonfire with marshmallows, hot chili, soup and snacks for sale.

PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES

Sign up to have your photo taken by photographers from Red Dog Digital of Casselman. They will be onsite with their antique 1940s, red ford pickup truck. Go to their website to pre-register, or chance it and see if they have time during their drop-in session from 12:00 - 1:00. www.reddogdigital.ca

Alternatively, you are welcome to wander the grounds and snap your own selfies next to the beautiful log buildings.

JUST FOR KIDS

NEW! Bring your little ones along to send a "Santa Gram" from noon until 2pm. Telegraph operator, Graham Roy, will help your kids send a messege by code straight to the North Pole and they may even get a message back! Donations welcome.

STAY WARM

If you are worried about the cold, dress warmly and be relieved to know that we will have outdoor heaters in the pavilion and vinyl curtains protecting it from the elements. The schoolhouse will also have some heaters to help keep the shopping comfortable. Take a break from shopping and warm up around the campfire and sip on hot apple cider, coffee or hot chocolate.

It's the perfect opportunity to get into the festive spirit and support local artisans from your community.
