Garfield Street Business Association Christmas Shopping Event is this Saturday, December 8, from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm.
Children get an opportunity for a free picture with Santa (though we do ask for a donation of food staples for the local community kitchen). Santa (played by yours truly) will be at the Garfield Book Company where the children will get a goodie bag, and a list of participating businesses.
Then the fun begins. Each participating business will be displaying a poster with a question relating to the history of Garfield Street, and for those who don't know the answer, they can lift the bow covered answer sheet to get the right answer. In addition, some of businesses will be providing hot cocoa or cider, tea, cookies, candy canes, and there may even be a coloring contest. When they complete the list, they will be getting to Getting Personal Imprinting, which is where they will be able to pick up their photos.
In addition, there will be some wandering carolers who will be visiting various businesses along Garfield Street. If you are in the Tacoma/Pierce County area on Saturday the 8th, please come and join us for some good times, and great shopping!
