Downtown Eau Claire will be particularly festive this Saturday, Dec. 6, thanks to return of the free-to-attend Haymarket Holiday event.
Hosted by Downtown Eau Claire, Inc. (DECI), Haymarket Holiday will take place from 12-4pm at the Pablo Center and Haymarket Plaza area (128 Graham Ave., Eau Claire). Featured family-friendly activities include a build-your-own hot cocoa bar, kids crafts and free trolley rides with the Chippewa River Trolley Co., among other things.
“The highlight of the day will be Santa and Mrs. Claus arriving by trolley at 12pm,” a recent media release stated. “Kids are also encouraged to bring their letters to Santa and drop them directly into Santa’s mailbox during the event.”
At 1pm, the Eau Claire Santa Cycle Rampage will roll out from the Haymarket Plaza, adding to the flurry of holiday-themed afternoon activity.
Learn more about DECI online at www.downtowneauclaire.org. The Haymarket Holiday event – including the Santa Cycle Rampage – is free to participate in and is open to all ages.
