The city of Santee is celebrating its 20th anniversary of holiday festivities with its Santee Holiday Lighting on Nov. 17 from 5:30-8:30 p.m. at Santee Trolley Square, located at 9884 Mission Gorge Road. This family-friendly event has sledding, live music, photos with Santa, games, face painting, and community organizations hosting booths with crafts, activities, and holiday treats.
New this year, the city is offering a “Selfies with Santa” event for those who do not want to wait in line during the Holiday Lighting the next day, Nov. 18, from 4:30-7:30 p.m. at Santee’s Trolley Square.
The evening’s tree lighting ceremony will be held in the amphitheater at 6:15. Throughout
the event, live music is provided by the Bayou Brothers.
