After Lights On, but before the North Country Singers Concert at Tannery Pond, kids and their parents will gather under our enclosed tent to sip hot chocolate and ask questions of Mrs. Claus. What is it you always wanted to know but didn’t have an opportunity to ask?
Who’s your favorite elf?
How cold does it get on the North Pole?
Does Santa ever get lost?
Proceeds will go to a local charity – kids and their families will get to shop in our store at a 10% discount the day of our event. Hot chocolate will be delicious!
Join us from 4:30-5:30 for a guided pairing of chocolates with Adirondack Winery‘s wines. The pairing will include their Chocolate infused port, Celebratory Red, a limited run created in collaboration with Barkeater Chocolates to celebrate both of our 15th anniversaries. In addition, we’ll unveil our Celebratory Red Truffle that we created with their port. We will pour a flight of their local wines and guide you through how to pair them with our chocolates. It will be a tasty and educational treat.
MUST BE 21 OR OLDER TO PARTICIPATE.
This year, we’re offering a special event for kids to meet and mingle with Mrs. Claus. For an hour and a half, children will get to hang with Santa’s Number One helper (though she’ll tell you she does most of the work and gets none of the cookies).
Our interactive event will last approximately 90 minutes and includes hot cocoa and a special Christmas treat for each child. Kids will get to submit questions for Mrs. Claus that they’ve always wanted to ask. She’ll read stories and bestow her wisdom upon everyone.
The event begins at 1:00 on Saturday, December 2, after the North Creek Christmas Parade.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Johnsburg Food Pantry.
