The Candlelight Walk and Tree Lighting will be Friday, November 29 in beautiful Downtown Littleton.

Starting at the courthouse, Santa Claus will make his way down Main Street in a toy-filled sleigh at 6:30 p.m. At the west end of Main Street, one lucky child's name will be drawn from entries received earlier in the evening to help Santa throw the switch on the huge, brightly-lit trees in Bowles Plaza. Littleton resident and television news anchor Anne Trujillo will emcee.

Gather at Town Hall Arts Center, Bega Park, or Bradford Auto Body for free hot cider and music from 5:15 to 6:30 p.m. Purchase candles for 50 cents or bring your own candle or flashlight. Donate non-perishable food for Inter-Faith Community Services or toys for the Arapahoe Santa Claus Shop. Voices West, the Leawood Elementary School Choir, and Colorado Fire Tribe will perform at various outdoor locations as the crowd waits for Santa’s arrival.
