Sanford’s Christmas Parade

I was very disappointed Friday – I was sick and missed the Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony at Depot Park!!!! I enjoy attending that event and am so sorry I had to miss it!!! But — there are two other great ways to kick off the Christmas Season right here in Sanford this week —

1 – A Carolina Country Christmas opened at the Temple on 11-19-07 and runs through 12-16-07! If it’s anything like past years, it promises to be a totally enjoyable evening! I have tickets to the Thursday matinee show this week and I’m taking my staff as their holiday “thank you for a great year” gift! We’re all really looking forward to it!!!! I’ll probably go with friends one evening while it’s playing, too.

2 – The Sanford Christmas Parade will be held on Monday 12-03-07 at 7:00 PM downtown! If you come out to watch it or just watch it on the local TV station, watch for the Communities In Schools entry! According to the line up printed in Sunday’s Herald, we’re # 46 – right between G.W. Godfrey and Sanford Rent-All. The theme this year is “Christmas at the Beach” – so, I’m driving my mustang with the top down and will have our Executive Director and Program Coordinator riding shotgun……come out and cheer us on as we drive by you!!!!

So — get with the holiday spirit and enjoy some of the great attractions in town!
