Time to hustle it up and get your holiday face on, as tickets go fast to this event at Kensington Metropark, located just 15-20 minutes from Hidden Lake near Milford. Snacks With Santa is an yearly tradition, and the ticket cost includes a horse-drawn hayride or sleigh ride, a holiday sing-along, complete with cozy blankets, song sheets and jingle bells, snacks, hot cocoa and coffee and the best part of all- a visit with Santa under the Christmas tree!
Bonus! The event takes place at the Farm Center, so children can wander about and see the variety of animals housed at this bountiful Metropark after their turn under the tree with the Big Man.
It’s all happening Sunday, December 11, Saturday, December 17 and Sunday, December 18, with a choice of times: 10:30, 12:00 or 2:00 PM. You will need a car pass to get into the Metropark, but that is affordable, and tickets are just $10.00 per person. But do book early – as this is a popular event and does sell out.
