ROSWELL — Come join in the holiday spirit with the entire family at Roswell's annual lighting of Historic Town Square Saturday, Dec. 6. The celebration begins at 5:15 p.m. and is free to the public.
This annual celebration includes performances by the Esther Jackson Singers and the River Eves Choir, followed by a special reading of "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" with Roswell City Councilman Jerry Orlans. Santa Claus will also be making a special visit to the Square, and pictures with Santa will be available at a nominal charge. Enjoy a cup of hot cocoa or Starbucks coffee during the festivities.
Once the Square is aglow, children 12 and under can hop on the trolley to shop for gifts at Santa's Secret Gift Shop. The Gift Shop is at 555 South Atlanta Street at Founder's Square and will be open on Saturday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. and Sunday from 1 to 4 p.m. All the gifts at Santa's Secret Gift Shop are under $8 and free gift wrapping is available. Proceeds from the Gift Shop benefit the Roswell Ramblers Senior Citizen Club.
For information, contact Mary Rummell with the Roswell Recreation, Parks, Historic and Cultural Affairs Department at 770-641-3950.
