All you need to bring is your festive cheer and your love of Christmas and, more importantly, Christmas music!
Please dress in your most fun Holiday attire, as fancy or as festive as you want. Also, please bring your biggest singing voices for our sing-a-longs. As the great Buddy the Elf says, “The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear!”
