This weekend will mark the 27th year for the merchants open house in Woodbury. Many of the activities related to the event have changed in the almost three decades. The one constant is the spirit of home and community.
Santa is scheduled for 5pm this evening. He will arrive on the Courthouse Square by a team of mules. Starting at 5:30pm. Santa will setup his workshop at the gazebo on the Courthouse lawn. The traditional lighting of the tree is scheduled for 5:10pm. Dillion Street Missionary Baptist Church will conduct a live nativity scene. Cannon Arts Dance Students will perform.
On Saturday, Santa will be available for photos with your pets at 10:00am. Folks are invited to help stuff stockings at Woodbury Health and Rehab by dropping off items like small candy bars, tissues, lotion and lap blankets.
Many merchants will offer specials and refreshments for the two days event.
