Sparkle in the Park | Saturday, December 6, 5:00-7:00pm, Memorial Park
Bundle up the family and join us as we welcome Santa and Mrs. Claus to Scarborough! We’ll be getting in the holiday spirit with sweet treats, activities, music, fireworks, and more. Please make sure to arrive early if you want to see the fireworks and tree lighting before meeting with our guest of honor. Shuttles and walkways down to the park will need to pause for fireworks to ensure safety of attendees. Help us spread the holiday cheer by bringing a non-perishable food item to donate to the Scarborough Food Pantry.
