November 9, 2003 - Until Christmas
The 22nd
annual "Home for the Holidays" begins November 9th with a Christmas parade
at 9am. The Grand Marshals of the parade this year will be the Texan
Cheerleaders. Open House begins in the shops after the parade, and
the official lighting of the Town begins at 5pm. There will be
entertainment every weekend until Christmas.
"Home For The Holidays," a tradition in Old Town Spring, proudly presents
"Christmas Around the World," the theme of this year's event. Twenty-four
beautifully decorated Christmas trees will be all around town, each depicting
a different country, with decorations made by area school children. Shops will
be decorated with twinkling lights, garlands and beautiful red bows. Shoppers
will be entertained by carolers, barbershop quartets, choirs, and a variety of
performers. It is truly a magical family event.
The weekends of November 9th and 10th and November 16th and 17th will be "Open
House" weekends, with the
shopkeepers previewing their Christmas Merchandise and welcoming shoppers with
treats and the kind of hospitality only a small town can offer. "Home for the
Holidays" continues through Christmas with great shopping everyday and free
entertainment on the weekends.
On November 16th at 6:30 p.m. the 1st Assembly of God Church of Spring will
begin their Annual Presentation: A Living Christmas Tree and live Nativity and
a very enjoyable Broadyway-like production entitled "Christmas Shines," a
great event to bring the whole Family to. Get here early; the crowds are
tremendous and it is hard to find a chair after 6 pm.
Old Town Spring offers the best in Shopping, Merchandise from all
Around the World, a Stress-free environment where shoppers can stroll, relax
and enjoy entertainment and hear the laughter ringing in the air. Faces are
smiling, voices are singing, it is like stepping back in Time. And yes, we do
have Santa for the children on Weekends in Thyme Square.
Our Charity for the event is "The Star of Hope Mission for the Homeless". We
collect used or new coats, sell stars for the "Star of Hope" Christmas tree,
which is actually a donation for the Mission, and we also collect Christmas
Presents for the Teenagers of the Mission.
Our big event is sponsored by Spring Trails a new home development on Riley
Fuzzel Road near Old Town Spring. Their Grand Opening will be in November.
