Brighten Up Beaumont
Friday, November 30, 2018
(organized in cooperation with the Promotions Committee)
Kick-off the holiday season with Beaumont's annual Christmas event! Santa and Mrs. Claus along with few reindeer will drop by to visit Beaumont before getting ready for their Christmas Eve dash.
Join us for the last Friday in November, beginning at 6pm, in the High School atrium and outside in Four Seasons Park. Kids can decorate cookies, get pictures with Santa, visit with Mrs. Claus, and create a fun Christmas craft. There will also be sleigh rides through the beautifully lit park, hot chocolate and oranges for everyone and you can warm up by the two fire pits while you enjoy live entertainment outside. Fireworks over Don Sparrow Lake at 9pm will cap off this festive event.
Bring along a donation for the Beaumont/Nisku Christmas Elves to help all of the families in our community have a merry holiday.
**The line ups for sleigh rides and for Santa will close at 8:30pm sharp! Make sure to arrive early to avoid disappointment.**
