You will want to take a short drive to Ontario, Oregon, on November 18th and 19th to hang out with some of our local businesses, offering a fun-filled day in a winter wonderland.
Vintage Rose is hosting their annual Frosty Fest with sponsors from Living In The News, the Ontario Chamber of Commerce, and the City of Ontario on Friday, November 18th, from 1:00 pm to 7:00 pm and Saturday, November 19th, from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm.
Mr. and Mrs. Clause will be available to visit on Friday from 1:00 pm to 7:00 pm. While waiting to see Ol’ Saint Nick, you can enjoy a ride in a horse-drawn buggy from 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm. You can also plan on shopping from our local vendors offering a variety of services and gifts, ranging from a free hearing examination from Dove Hearing Center, based in Weiser, to furniture and Christmas décor, to clothing and jewelry, to spa products and gift items, and so much more. Plan on eating lunch or dinner at the Frosty Fest from one of our several food trucks and baked goods booths.
Frosty Fest will be located on Oregon St, between SW 1st Ave and SW 3rd Ave, and will have a variety of indoor and outdoor fun for everyone.
Don’t forget to seek out Santa Clause from Living In The News and Mister Grinch from Dove Hearing Center for some extra fun and laughs. You’ll be able to find them both lingering near the Dove Hearing Center booth outside while you step inside their mobile trailer to warm up and enjoy a quick hearing screening.
Mark the dates November 18th and 19th on your calendars today so you can experience one of the first winter wonderland festivities of the season!
