Cocoa, Music, and Santa.. . Enjoy Winter Fun in Weddington

December 7th, 2008 categories: Charlotte Lifestyle, Real Estate Grind, The Charlotte Scoop

There are so many choices of holiday events going on throughout Charlotte and the surrounding areas.  The Town of Weddington has some attractive alternatives that both you and your children can enjoy as you breathe the crisp, clean and cold winter air.  The Town of Weddington is located about fifteen miles southeast of Charlotte and fourteen miles from Monroe.  Here are highlights of Weddington events going on this week:

1. Bright Lights, Little Town.  The town of Weddington will have their 1st Annual Town Hall Tree Lighting Event on December 8, 2008 at 6:00 pm.  Enjoy coffee, cocoa, cookies, and the company of the friendly Weddington citizens.  Since this is the first year for this event, I’m sure that the town would love a big turnout which can set a precedent for years to come.
2. Musical Melodies.  The Marshville Elementary School Music Machine will present a Christmas concert on December 9, 2008 at 6:30 pm.  Advance tickets are $1 and tickets at the door are $2.  Being a  band member while in school,  I know that the students would love the support of their local community in addition to their family and friends.   
3. Share Breakfast with Santa.  The Weddington Optimist Club will host a breakfast with Santa at the Siler Presbyterian Church’s Fellowship Hall on Saturday, December 13, 2008 from 8:00 am-10:30 am. The breakfast will include all you can eat pancakes, bacon, sausage, orange juice, and coffee.  Tickets are $4.00 for adults and $3.00 for children ages 3-10.    Bring your camera to take a picture with the special breakfast guest, Santa.  What child or adult as well would not enjoy sharing a meal with Santa?  Santa enjoys the solo midnight milk and cookies snack on Christmas Eve but I’m sure that he would enjoy meeting you for a more nutritious meal and pleasant company.

Weddington has a lot to offer and many of these events could be enduring annual traditions for you and your family.
