An unforgettable evening of snow, twinkling lights, and a special visit from Santa Claus await in Downtown Homestead this December as the historic district transforms into a magical winter wonderland for the Holiday in Homestead on Saturday, Dec. 3, from 5 until 8 p.m. at Losner Park, located at 104 N. Krome Ave., Homestead. The traditional tree lighting ceremony will begin at 6 p.m. with a special twist new for this year’s celebration.
Throughout the evening, there will be plenty of holiday cheer to go around with sledding, snowball target practice, an ugly sweater red carpet, and special holiday performances. In addition, guests will enjoy food trucks, cookies and cocoa sponsored by Home by Sweet Jalane’s, story time with the Cybrarium, and photos with Santa. There also will be ornament decorating and a mailbox to send your Christmas wish list and letters straight to Santa.
The event is open free to the public, but attendees are encouraged to bring new, unwrapped toys to be collected for Start Off Smart Inc. (SOS). SOS is the social services unit embedded within the Homestead Police Department and has a goal of distributing 1,000 toys to local families in need this holiday season.
