We will be having our 19th Annual Saanichton Community Christmas on December 2nd/2023.

We are counting on our Community Partners, old and new, to help us bring a little Christmas joy to those less fortunate this time of the year.

 This years festivities included:

* Christmas horse-drawn carriage rides through Saanichton Village, Tally-Ho Carriage Tours.

* Follow the Christmas Tree Trail. Visit each of the local businesses along the trail.

* Photos with Santa and cookie boxes for all the kids.

The SVA, with the continued support of the local businesses of the Saanichton Village, and Seaside Magazine are pleased to bring you this years’ event with some modifications to ensure a COVID-19 compliant event, which will be safe for families to participate in. This will be our 19th consecutive year for the event.

We’re counting on your continued support to cover the costs of the event.  The sponsorship cost this year is 50% less because we’ve received some grant money, so it’s only $75 per business (puts your logo on the Tree Trail Map) and you’ll be included in all media and thank you cards issued to the community. Remaining proceeds will be donated to the Saanich Peninsula Lions Food Bank.

The donation amounts for families to participate will be; $25 for a group of 3, and $50 for a group of 4-6. Tax receipts will be issued for donations.
