The Christmas decorations are up and the lights will be lit in downtown Clarkesville this evening.
The city will host its annual holiday event from 5:30-8 p.m. Friday, December 2.
There will be live music on the downtown square, the lighting of the town’s Christmas tree, a cookie crawl (more on that in a minute), a live Nativity, free photos with Santa, and marshmallow roasting and hot chocolate.
Boxes for the cookie crawl are $5 apiece and may be purchased at the celebration. Then, fill your box by visiting 12 merchants around town to pick up your cookies.
If you can’t make it to Clarkesville to celebrate Christmas this evening, there will be another opportunity to enjoy the town’s Christmas spirit. New this year, Clarkesville is hosting a Candlelight Christmas Walk beginning at 6 p.m. on Saturday, December 19.
The walk will begin at Norton Realty at 855 Washington Street and end in downtown Clarkesville. Listen to carolers at several locations before reaching the square for hot chocolate and more Christmas activities.
