Commonly Asked Questions
Who is the Christmas Store for?
The Christmas Store is for any family with children birth - 5th grade who may have financial challenges during the holidays. There is nothing that you have to do to qualify for this. We just invite you to sign up each child that you'd like to purchase a ticket for.
What is the cost of the Christmas Store?
The cost is $5 per child for ages birth-5th grade. With the purchase of a ticket, you will have the opportunity to pick up a toy, book, pillow, and socks and underwear for your child.
Can I purchase tickets on the day of the event?
Due to signing up for shopping time slots in order to space people throughout the store, we won't be able to sell tickets the day of the event.
