The Whitewater Historical Society is joining the trend of thinking about Christmas in October! Like the stores that start putting up Christmas products at the same time as Halloween products, the historical society is presenting an early Christmas program, “Whitewater Recollects: Downtown Christmas Shopping.” The program will take place at the Starin Park Community Building on Sunday, October 5 at 1:00 p.m.
Join community members to reminisce about Christmas Shopping in downtown Whitewater during the late 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. During these years, downtown merchants promoted Christmas shopping with special product displays, added toys, and events like Santa visits. The historical society program is free and open to the public!
