The Village of Oswego Christmas Walk kicks off the holiday season in downtown Oswego from 4:30pm to 8:30pm on Friday, December 6.
This free event features performances by local choirs, visits with Santa’s reindeer, ice sculpting, an inflatable sled hill, the Village’s annual tree lighting performance and an emergency vehicle light parade. People of all ages can enjoy games, crafts and giveaways. Downtown stores will open their doors to showcase holiday décor and gifts for all ages.
“Christmas Walk is a wonderful holiday tradition for families in downtown Oswego,” Village President Ryan Kauffman said. “Let’s come together as a community and celebrate the holiday season in our beautiful hometown.”
The tree-lighting performance begins at 5:30 p.m. at the TR Miller Heating, Cooling and Plumbing main stage at the corner of Main and Jackson streets and features live choral music and a theatrical performance by local schools. There are also opportunities to watch Oswego’s dance troupes and other choirs at three different live entertainment locations during the event, along with DJ John Werle.
Children are encouraged to bring their wish list and visit Santa at his North Pole home away from home. Later in the evening, the illuminated emergency vehicle parade will make its way down Main Street brought to you by the Oswego Fire Protection District. In addition to decorated trucks and cars, favorite characters will take part in the parade.
