Santa, the Grinch, Buddy the Elf, Elsa and Anna, and Ziggy from Switchbacks FC will be in Acacia Park for free photos from 11 AM to 1 PM. Downtown Partnership says to be in line by 12:45 PM, because the characters leave the park at 1 PM.

From 1 to 3 PM they stroll Tejon Street between Kiowa and Boulder, and Bijou Street, with more photo chances in shops and on the sidewalk. A hot chocolate station, sponsored by Underline, will be in the park.
