Santa and Mrs. Claus are excited to return to Beaumont Village on Friday, December 2. Visitors will be treated to music, entertainment, activities, and warm beverages, courtesy of Beaumont Business Association (BBA) member businesses on Fremont Street.
Santa and Mrs. Claus will roar down Fremont in a fire truck at 3:30 p.m., stop at Grand Central Bakery, and then pose for photos with children from 4:00-7:30 p.m. The Oregon Food Bank will be the recipient of donations in exchange for pictures.
New this year, adult visitors can sign up for a complimentary 5:00 or 6:30 p.m. guided relaxation with Laura Washington, owner of Luminance (yoga) on N.E. 41st. Also new this year, be on the lookout for Grant High School carolers. Also, younger visitors will be delighted to know they can make Christmas “reindeer food” at Peak Mortgage.
Even dogs will have an opportunity to enjoy the festival. Green Dog Pet Supply and the Hollywood Star will graciously co-host Santa Paws. Have you ever considered sending out your holiday card featuring your dashing pup? Here’s your chance!
Reserving a spot with Santa and Santa Paws is highly encouraged. For reservation instructions as well as a schedule of Holiday Fest activities, visit the BBA website (www.beaumontvillagepdx.com).
“We have a wonderful community, and we’re so pleased our business district has an opportunity to open its doors and welcome everyone in,” said Kurt Sand, president of the Beaumont Business Association. “It’s also important to take care of those who need our help. We’re very glad to be partnering with the Oregon Food Bank again.”
