On Dec. 6, 7–9 p.m., Camelback Resort invites families from near and far to an evening of festive fun. The beloved annual tradition kicks off the holiday season by welcoming Santa and Mrs. Claus as they make their grand entrance to light the resort’s Christmas tree. The event is free to the public and features photo opps with Santa and Mrs. Claus, live entertainment by Sax and Max, festive children’s activities, a hot cocoa bar, and more.
Guests are also encouraged to help spread holiday cheer and give back to those in need by donating new, unwrapped toys valued at $10–30 to Toys for Tots of Monroe County’s Christmas campaign.

Families attending the festive celebration should consider turning their visit into a weekend trip to take advantage of all the other fun activities Camelback has to offer. Spend the day out on the slopes, zoom down the tubing hill, splash around at the indoor waterpark, engage in friendly competition at the arcade and much more.
