Take A Hayride With Santa Today

December 13, 2008

It’s the next best thing to a sleigh ride — Santa Claus will be in Escambia County for hayrides this evening.

Escambia County Neighborhoods and Community Services Bureau announces the sixth Annual Santa Hayride. This year’s event will be held on this evening at the Escambia County Equestrian Center, 7750 Mobile Highway. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and admission is free. There will be nominal charges for concessions.

This winter wonderland will be fun for children of all ages. You can ride and sing on the hayride, enjoy seasonal, fun activities, such as inflatable “moon walks,” make holiday decorations, take a pony ride, and have a chance to give Santa your wish list all at no charge. Be sure to bring your own camera for photos with Santa. You can also climb a rock wall for $5 per climb and take a bungee jump for $5 per jump. The event provides a great opportunity to make holiday memories that will last a lifetime. So stop by and enjoy the festive music, cheer and holiday refreshments.

The event also serves as an official drop-off site for the Toys for Tots program sponsored by the Marine Corps League Detachment 066. Patrons are also encouraged to drop off broken or old cellular telephones, which will be exchanged for free minutes for overseas troops to call home for the holidays.
