The 56th annual Holiday Ho!Ho!Ho! festivities will be held next Friday, December 1, from 5 to 8 p.m. on Swarthmore (north of Sunset), sponsored by the Pacific Palisades Chamber of Commerce. Mr. and Mrs. Claus will arrive on Fire Truck 69, escorted by two LAPD motorcycle officers and accompanied by Honorary Mayor Steve Guttenberg, Buddy the fire station dog, and Mr. and Miss Palisades. Our North Pole visitors will then sit upon their bright-red sled while Santa listens to the children’s wishes. Mrs. Claus will give each child a gift, compliments of Santa’s Elves and the Chamber, until she and her hubby depart at 8 p.m. The town’s Oom PaPa band will entertain with holiday music, Fancy Feet will perform, Amy the Face Painter will delight children with her unique designs, and KettleKorn will be available. The Ho!Ho!Ho! organizing committee includes co-chairs Roy Robbins (Roy Robbins Gifts & Stationery); Denise Mangimelli (BOCA, BOCA Man & Green Tea); Ramis Sadrieh (Technology For You!); David Williams (Mogan’s Caf’); Bob Sharka (Friends of Film); Andy Frew (Theatre Palisades); and Marianne Ullerich, photography.
