The free annual Hometown Holidays will be held in Providence 4-8 p.m. Dec. 5 at the new Huckleberry Park at 10325 Farm Road, north of the I-215 North Beltway and Hualapai Way exit.
Attendees will be able to create new holiday memories with festivities including train rides; Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa craft-making; cookie decorating; holiday-themed carnival games; a bounce slide; and Christmas tree-lighting at 4:30 p.m. Set to holiday music, the event will culminate with fireworks, weather permitting, at 7:30 p.m.
Kids can meet with Santa Claus; P.D., Providence’s lovable canine mascot; and Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and Lucy of Peanuts fame. Additionally special Santa photo package pricing will be available, with Providence residents getting pictures with Santa for free.
