The City of Little Creek will hold its annual Light the Square event on Dec. 5 from 5 to 8 p.m., with a lighting ceremony scheduled for 6:30 p.m., the speaker said. The announcement said the square will feature more than 60,000 lights overall, including about 5,000 lights on the central Christmas tree, and that most activities will take place indoors with a brief outdoor lighting moment.
Organizers said Santa and Mrs. Claus will be present for the duration of the event and that two different hosts will lead free crafts for children. The speaker described the event as family friendly while also offering elements intended for adults.
The city also announced its first Christmas Market, set for Friday, Dec. 12, from 5 to 8 p.m. The market is planned to include more than 50 vendors across indoor and outdoor spaces, food and beverage vendors (including a wine vendor offering mulled wine), and continuous live music performed by the band identified in the announcement as "17 o 3."
