White Lake Chamber of Commerce Holiday Parade; December 2, 2:00 - 3:00 p.m.
Everybody knows that very soon, good ol’ Santa’s comin to town! But did you know that tomorrow Santa’s coming to White Lake? Mark your calendars for 2:00 p.m. and come on out for the Annual Christmas Parade in downtown Montague and Whitehall. These quaint side-by-side lakeside towns,’ north of Muskegon, are definitely worth the drive for a bit of wholesome Christmas nostalgia. With over 50 entries, this parade is a very special slice of “small town America'' and a great way to celebrate this holiday season. Also, before you leave home, check out the delicious pies, cookies, charcuterie, and breads on the Art of Cookery website. This charming Whitehall cooking school, and retail cookery shop is definitely worth checking out! Even better, stock up now and let them take care of all your holiday baking needs because nothing says ‘holiday’ like sugar and spice and homemade too! If you order ahead, you can specify when you want to pick up your delicious goodies and they will have them ready for you.
CranHill’s Star of Wonder, Journey to the Manger; December 2 and 3; 6:00 - 8:30 p.m. each night
You have three nights this weekend to experience CranHill’s heart of the holiday message - ‘Star of Wonder, Journey to the Manger’. And a journey it is! - as you travel in the warmth of your car, with your family at your side - reflecting on the timeless tale of Jesus’ birth as presented through CranHill’s LIVE nativity. This is a once a year opportunity - and hopefully a new family tradition - to immerse yourselves in the reenactment of the birth of Jesus Christ, with real actors, real animals and easy to use narration. Drive through anytime between 6:00 and 8:00 p.m.; afterwards, you're welcome to stop in to the Barn Store for snacks and ice cream or check out the store merchandise if you like. This memorable experience is free, but you are welcome to make a donation to their scholarship fund if you chose.
Muskegon Museum of Art Super Saturday and Hot Cocoa Sip
Once again…It’s time! It’s Super! It’s Saturday! …And, It’s Free! Come on out to the Muskegon Museum of Art for Super Saturday. As always, you and your family can enjoy all the permanent galleries at this beautiful museum, and this month promises to be extra-super special because the theme will be inspired by a piece of art from one of their collections. I wonder what it might be? Venture out between 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. and view all the spectacular holiday wonders while you sip on delicious hot cocoa, and create your very own ornament to take home and hang on your holiday tree! I’d say that sums up a pretty Super Saturday! (there is $ 5.00 charge to access the Festival of Trees gallery).
