St. Charles Event

Santa's Cottage on the 1st Street Plaza (Weekends Through Dec. 20)

Santa meets families for free at his cottage on the 1st Street Plaza in downtown St. Charles every Saturday and Sunday from Nov. 28 through Dec. 20, from 1 to 4 p.m. Kids can hand over a wish list or drop it in the mailbox on the side of the cottage any time. The St. Charles Business Alliance asks families to keep visits to about three minutes, and says friendly dogs are welcome.
