pre-Christmas walkThe Old Fashioned Christmas Walk in Downtown North Bay goes tonight (Friday).

Executive Director Jeff Serran says this is the 27th annual in it’s current format, but similar events have been happening for much longer than that in the downtown.

The evening gets started at 6 pm with the Christmas Tree lighting in the Diegel Parkette at Fraser and Main West.

There’s also North Bay Hydro bucket rides, roasting marshmallows, music and entertainment, horse and wagon rides, the Cheapskates Rail Jam and much more.

Serran says unique events are helping them to attract people from all over the province to the annual Christmas Walk.

Our radio station offers up a chance to “Be a Broadcaster” and we have hot apple cider from Orchards.
