Kicking it off, we’ve got the ongoing Letters to Santa from November 19th to December 21st. Swing by the WHCA and let us help you get your Christmas wish-list on its way to the North Pole!

Nothing puts us in the holiday spirit quite like Christmas lights! Join us for Show Us Your Lights on December 14th from 5 – 8 pm. For more info, check out the poster below, visit our events page, or contact John on ext. 4.

Here’s your chance to hit the ice with Santa himself! Skate with Santa is free for WHCA members and lets you get close to the big guy just days before he embarks on his global Christmas journey. Check it out December 21, 4:30 pm to 6 pm.
