Santa Claus To Kick Off Light Up Ligonier Friday Night
LIGONIER, Pa. (KDKA) - Santa Claus is coming to town -- Ligonier, to be more specific.
Santa will arrive to downtown Ligonier by horse-drawn sleigh, led by a parade including the Ligonier Valley High School marching band.
"The North Pole has confirmed that Santa Claus will be arriving in charming downtown Ligonier on Friday, Nov. 29, at 6:30 p.m.," said Executive Director of the Ligonier Valley Chamber of Commerce Scott Haines in a press release.
"He is looking forward to helping us light up our beautiful Diamond and greeting the children afterwards."
A child and their family can enter a contest to be picked to press the button to light up the Diamond. The contest, 'Help Santa Light Up Ligonier," can be entered by purchasing a ticket at Abigail's Coffee house and The Ligonier Chamber of Commerce office.
There will also be a mailbox for sending letters straight to the North Pole, sleigh rides in front of Town Hall and Christmas shows.
