There’s no shortage of holiday spirit in St. Marys this year!
New this month is the Holiday Light Tour, which launches on Friday, December 9. This year’s tour features over 15 beautifully decorated homes. Download and print the map at www.discoverstmarys.ca/happyholidays or access it via the free Driftscape app. Hard copies of the map are available at municipal facilities. The tour runs until January 1, 2023.
Our wonderful WinterLights continue to be lit every evening from 5:00 to 11:00 p.m. at Milt Dunnell Field. The ever-popular horse and wagon rides will return on December 16, 17, 23 and 24 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. This beloved tradition is being offered at no charge thanks to the generosity of our WinterLights sponsors.

For indoor fun, check out “A Wish Book Christmas,” the St. Marys Museum’s 90s-themed holiday exhibit, running until January 6, 2023.

Pre-registration is recommended. For specific dates and times, visit www.discoverstmarys.ca/happyholidays.
