Mrs. Claus welcomes the holiday season in Lahaska

If you think the "Christmas creep" hasn't come up quickly enough, you might want to stop reading. Peddler's Village will be hosting its Kick Off to the Holidays celebration, complete with Mrs. Claus, Friday, Nov. 13. 

That evening Mrs. Claus will lead a light parade through the village beginning at the courtyard with a smaller tree-lighting at 6:30 p.m. (The Grand Illumination isn't until Friday, Nov. 20.) Throughout her journey, she'll be "magically" lighting trees on her path through the shops and stalls. 

The usual goodies from Peddler's Village vendors will be available and shops will be open later, until 9 p.m., to accommodate the celebration. Parking on the premises is free as usual.
