The Village of Oswego Christmas Walk presented by Allied First Bank will start the holiday season in downtown Oswego from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Friday, Dec. 1.
Presented by Allied First Bank for the sixth consecutive year, this free event features performances by local choirs, visits with Santa’s reindeer, ice sculpting, an inflatable sled hill, the Village’s annual tree lighting performance and an emergency vehicle light parade. People of all ages are invited to enjoy games, crafts, and giveaways. Downtown stores will open their doors to showcase holiday décor and gifts for all ages.
“Christmas Walk is a wonderful holiday tradition for families in downtown Oswego,” Village president Ryan Kauffman said. “Let’s come together as a community and celebrate the holiday season in our beautiful hometown.”
The tree-lighting performance begins at 5:30 p.m. at the corner of Main and Jackson Streets with music from the Bednarcik and Traughber Junior High School Choruses. The Oswego High School’s Standing O Theatre Company, with the help of Village President Kauffman and board members, will do a short skit. There are also opportunities to watch Oswego’s dance troupes and choirs at three different live entertainment locations during the event, along with music from DJ John Werle.
