Christmas at Crossroads: November 27 – 29

Let the holiday celebrations begin! Join us at Russell Crossroads from Friday, November 27 through Sunday, November 29 for a weekend of fun opening the Christmas season.

On Friday, the weekend kicks off at the Town Green with Santa’s arrival by horse-drawn carriage at 11 am. Visit with the jolly old fellow until 2 pm as The Herb Trotman Band plays your holiday favorites. Kids are invited to make and decorate bird feeders and Christmas ornaments. Or, grab the family and relax on a complimentary carriage ride from 11 am to 2 pm. If you’d rather check out the local wildlife, head over to the Naturalist Cabin where Marianne will have live turkeys! Don’t miss sipping hot apple cider in Catherine’s Market while checking out the specials for the weekend.

If your gift list is long, the Holiday Art Bazaar at The Stables from 9 am to 5 pm is the place to be. You’ll find everything from handmade pottery and one-of-a-kind jewelry to paintings, photographs, bath salts, candy and much more. And, for added holiday cheer, cocktails and beverages will be available for purchase.

On Saturday, join Mrs. Claus for pancakes and stories from 8 am – 10 am at The Stables! Old Saint Nick had to hurry back to the North Pole to get busy making toys for all the girls and boys.

Don’t miss this chance to kick off your holidays with friends, family and all of us at Russell Lands On Lake Martin. See you soon!
