The Plaza at Preston Center welcomes Santa for the 12th annual “Santa Days” celebration, December 6th, 13th and 20th from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. This year Santa will be joined by his favorite miniature horse, Ferguson Rifle, who rivals Rudolph in his claim to fame as one of Santa’s loyal holiday companions. While Santa loves milk and cookies, Ferguson satisfies his sweet tooth with cupcakes and ice cold Dr. Pepper straight from the bottle. Come have a Polaroid picture taken for free with Santa and Ferguson and stroll through the variety of shops while enjoying the Plaza’s always popular holiday decorations. From Santa’s crimson robe to the peppermint sticks topping Ferguson’s cupcakes, red is the jolliest color of the season and Santa’s elves have worked extra hard on decorating this year’s new holiday tree – a festive display of shiny red ornaments and gifts illuminated by white twinkle lights.
