PHOTOS WITH SANTA

The holiday spirit truly comes alive when visiting Santa. We invite community members of all ages to share a moment with the big guy. This beloved activity will be held at the Bokonon (next to the old Weaver's Studio). It's a great chance to support our community's Kid Country Daycare (a nonprofit 501(c)(3)). Thanks to the generous support of KSandru Photography, Santa, Joe Wiltzen, and the Old Hotel. All proceeds benefit the daycare (this is a pay-what-you'd-like fundraiser). 

"THE CHRISTMAS SNOW GLOBE" READING

Join the Twin Bridges Public Library at 6 pm for a reading of "The Christmas Snow Globe," by Sibylle Delacroix, and read by the library's Storytime leader, Kerstin Clark. The library will also have a snow globe photo backdrop and a stuffed buddy (Clifford the Big Red Dog or the Grinch) for photos.

GIVING TREE

Your generosity this season can provide comfort and joy. Twin Bridges Schools coordinates the effort, and the Giving Tree will be featured at Opportunity Bank again this year. Applications for assistance are available at the school, and supporters can select anonymous wishlist tags from the Giving Tree starting Stroll night. 

COMMUNITY CHILI FEED

The TBCA is excited to host a festive holiday event with our community chili feed. MYCA cadets and members of the Rotary Club of the Ruby Valley will be there, creating a lively atmosphere as they serve up delicious, homemade chili along with all the fixings everyone could want. Chili is FREE, but donations are appreciated and help support the TBCA in organizing this event.

COOKIE DECORATING

Visit with Novich Insurance during their Open House, and decorate a Christmas cookie, or two!

A GRINCHY GOOD CAUSE

This holiday season, the MT DUI Task Force is bringing some mischief—and plenty of fun—to the Twin Bridges Christmas Stroll! Stop by Three Rivers Quick Stop–Cenex and help determine the fate of the Grinch. Will he end up in Grinchy jail or be set free? Your ticket also gives you a chance to win a raffle for a large family-night prize pack, featuring 10 classic games perfect for holiday fun at home. All funds raised support the Firewood Bank of the Ruby Valley. 

TURKEY BINGO

In this exciting game of chance, winners receive a frozen turkey, perfect for holiday dinners! The turkeys are supplied by the TBCA and Berkshire-Hathaway. Many thanks to our TBCA members who coordinate and host the activity, and to the Blue Anchor for serving as our venue!

HOT COCOA, ESPRESSO, AND EVERYTHING MERRY- OH MY!

Visit Main Street Market during the Christmas Stroll for refreshments and holiday shopping! They’ll be serving up a hot cocoa bar, offering a buy-one-get-one-half-price deal on espresso drinks in the Coffee Shop, and special discounts on all things Christmas in the Gift Shop! 

LIVE NATIVITY

We are excited to welcome Mountain View Chapel’s live nativity, a heartfelt new addition to this year’s stroll that will bring the Christmas story to life in the parking lot of The Red Shed Gift Shop. 

GINGERBREAD DISPLAY

At Twin Bridges City Park, a hint of holiday magic awaits. Resolute Roots Realty will showcase its charming gingerbread display, making its debut before heading to other valley celebrations. It’s a creation so delightful that its creators wanted to share its charm with more than one gathering! 

HOLIDAY GAMES
