This time of year I would usually be making my way to Rock Hill for Christmasville. Now that I live in Duck NC, I wanted to try out a local tradition, The Annual Yuletide Festival. Every year, the town gathers at the green for a fabulous holiday celebration.
First, families can make their way around the waterfront shops for the Great Elf Hunt, where you search the stores for a hidden elf and get your passport stamped for a prize. Next, locals make their way to the town square for holiday treats and sweets, from cookies to cocoa and more. Once the live band kicks off, Santa arrives in the Duck fire truck. The finale of the festival is the lighting of the town crab pot tree.
After all the merriment, we made our way down to the docks for a sunset walk. It was the perfect end to the perfect evening. I can’t wait to see what 2017 has in store!
Looks like you found a way to find some fun in the chill of duck and December. Cute events.
