Tomorrow, we welcome what has become a yearly tradition to downtown LaSalle: Miracle on First Street (and no we are not talking about our completed renovation project).
Presented by the LaSalle Promotional and Advisory Committee, this will be an all-day event on Saturday, December 5th that concludes with the annual lighting of the Christmas tree at City Hall.
Starting as early as 8:00 am, the day will feature plenty of family activities to participate in throughout downtown LaSalle in an effort by the city to provide a fun, holiday atmosphere while promoting local businesses.
Santa will be out and about all morning and afternoon, so make time in your day to bring the kids down to see him. Here are the times and places:
Here is a list of other activities going on throughout the day:
Take a holiday tour at the Hegler Carus Mansion - Tours run on the hour at 12, 1 , 2 , and 3 o'clock. Carriage rides will also be available from 1 to 4 pm beginning at the corner of First and Marquette Streets.
The day will conclude with a "Walk with Santa" parade starting at The Gathering Place bowling alley around 4:15 and ending with the lighting of the Christmas tree at City Hall.
Come enjoy a fun-filled, holiday spirit Saturday... but make sure to take a break for a bite to eat here at the Uptown. We will be serving up warm meals all afternoon, or just stop in for a beverage to warm you up!
