Christmas Shop Syracuse

Even though shoppers traditionally rush to stores as early as the day after Thanksgiving to begin their Christmas buying, Santa Claus will officially christen the opening of the Syracuse Christmas shopping season with his arrival this Saturday, Dec. 8. The Jolly Old Elf will greet children on that day from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in an especially decorated workshop at Fisher’s Mower Shop, located in Wawasee Village on SR 13. And they’ll be a photographer there to take photos of youngsters with Santa. Syracuse Retail Merchants decked out a shed at the lawn and garden shop and gathered special treats for the children who will visit Santa there. Big Wheel has donated coloring books and candy canes to be given away. Children can enter a page of the book in coloring contest and three winners will receive a $lO gift certificate at the store. Additionally, McDonald’s and Three Flags will be giving away coupons or gift certificates to children at the workshop. Santa is scheduled to make an appearance at Pickwick Theatre between movie showCover photos Events this weekend, Dec. 8-9, will introduce the Christmas season in Syracuse. Once again this year, area bands and choirs will perform in the Old Fashion Christmas Concert in the Lakeside Park gazebo. An audience sing-a-long by candlelight will close the holiday concert.
