Get ready for a joyful time as the community gathers to kick-off the season at the 25th Annual Holiday in the Park in Towne Center Park on Friday, December 6 from 5:30-8:30 p.m.
Festivities will include the lighting of the Christmas Tree at 6:30 p.m. with performances by the Rockwall-Heath High School Jazz Band, and the Amy Parks, Dorothy Pullen and Linda Lyon Elementary School Honor Choirs. Special “pre-show” entertainment will feature the Cain Middle School Band and Orchestra beginning at 6 p.m.
There will also be a Winter Village with food trucks, a dining area warmed by holiday lights, rides on two miniature trains, kids’ activities, complimentary hot cocoa and Christmas cookies, home baked and donated by the National Charity League and Rockwall Women’s League.
As always, the star of the evening is Santa, and he will be in his picture-perfect scene until 8:30 p.m. after helping light up the Christmas Tree. To make parking easier, there will be a new Trolley Shuttle sponsored by Tom Thumb running from the shopping center to Towne Center Park from 5 to 9 p.m.
