Winter Fest

This is a gatheringng to explore the downtown area and kick off the winter holiday season. The plan is to wander the makers market and connect with the community, and end at the park for the tree lighting. Some of the events are earlier than our meetup time or not in the immediate vicinity, please feel free to explore on your own too!�We will wait up to 15 minutes for anyone who may be running a bit behind.�There are several parking lots within a few blocks or some street parking may be available, plan ahead to walk a bit to get to the meetup point. There are restaurants that will have food and beverages. Dress warm and we will be walking but this part of downtown is reasonably navigable for anyone with disabilities. Family friendly event and we can decide as a group where to get a bite to eat after for anyone interested.�LoveOly, The Olympia Downtown Alliance, is thrilled to announce the return of LoveOly WinterFest—a festive street celebration on Sunday, November 30, from 10 am–4 pm at the corner of 5th Avenue and Washington Street.�FREE & Family-Friendly WinterFest Events (Nov 30):�Kids’ Holiday Crafts with the Hands On Children’s Museum�Storytelling in the Olympia Ballroom Lobby (11 am–12 pm & 1–2 pm)�Hot Chocolate Station hosted by Sofie’s Scoops and Batdorf & Bronson�Visits with Santa at 222 Market (222 Capitol Way N)�Live stage entertainment throughout the day featuring local schools, choirs, and more!�And, don't miss the local Makers Market with handcrafted holiday gifts!
