Christmas in the Wilds will highlight shopping locally. During the event Saturday December 12 various Emporium Businesses will offer free projects for children. Cameron County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Tina Johns Lorson hopes that when parents or grandparents take children to the businesses they will look around the store and realize what products are sold in Cameron County.
“Since Santa is bringing two of his reindeer plus the giant helium filled reindeer balloon in the parade, several of the crafts focus on reindeer,” Johns Lorson says. Children can make a reindeer candy cane stirrer at the Cabin Kitchen, and reindeer antlers at Cappy’s. Pizza Palace Plus will have pizza tossing and making demonstrations. At the Emporium Pharmacy children can make Christmas tree ornaments, Flowers N Things will have a flower craft and at the Aroma Bakery and Café children can decorate cookies for free. The businesses request that children be accompanied by an adult and the free crafts will be available from noon to 3PM.
Cameron County Recreation will sponsor a graham cracker holiday house craft at Memorial Hall from noon to 1:30PM. In addition to the activities for children, several businesses will have sales and customer appreciation programs. Flower N Things, Emporium Pharmacy, Touches of Country and the Cameron County Chamber of Commerce & Artisan Center also plan to extend holiday shopping hours on both Friday and Saturday
