289. Santa Returns for Barrington Village Tree Lighting
In a matter of days, the “Santa House” in downtown Barrington will be buzzing with activity, when St. Nick returns and makes his grand entrance during the annual lighting of the community Christmas tree.
The Village of Barrington goes all out for this yearly tree lighting tradition, with carriage rides, strolling carolers and Santa’s arrival on a firetruck before he heads to his perch in his little house stationed right in the heart of town.
Once he gets settled, the doors of that Santa Station will swing open for him to visit with a long line of local kids this Saturday, December 1st.
The Village of Barrington, merchants and restaurants throughout town have a special day planned for this Saturday leading up to the tree lighting and Santa’s arrival. And they’re making it easy for you to hit as many shops as possible with trolley service available between 10:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. The trolley will make a continuous hourly circuit with stops every 15 minutes at the following locations: Village Center – 100 S Cook Street, The Ice House Mall, Shops on Lageschulte Street and the Foundry Shopping Center on Northwest Highway.
Here’s what’s happening, when and where……
