Christmas in the Bay

Christmas in the Bay will, once again, be a time for our community to welcome the Christmas spirit to St. Margaret’s Bay.

While Covid-19 has forced changes to what is traditionally a day-long community event, there will still be plenty of festive fun! However, the ATV wagon rides, the fireworks, visits with Santa, and other activities are being put on hold until next year.

While it’s disappointing to not have these traditional favourites, the Christmas in the Bay elves have some fun surprises in store that are sure to warm your heart and get you into the spirit of the season. Check back soon for details, and make sure to follow us on Facebook!

Virtual Christmas in the Bay

WHEN: Sunday, November 29th, 5-6PM AST
WHERE: Facebook Live at: facebook.com/ChristmasintheBay

 

We are bringing the magic of this favourite annual event to your family at home. Join us our first Virtual Christmas in the Bay! This magical hour will be filled with carols and stories, and of course the annual tree lighting with a special guest appearance by Santa himself! The event will be hosted LIVE on our Facebook page, with Santa’s chief reporter, Susie Reindeer, on Sunday November 29th from 5-6pm. And the best part is that if you can’t make it live, everything will be recorded so you can watch (or re-watch!) the program at anytime with your family.
