Live entertainment from the Chattanooga Girls Choir, Choo Choo Kids and more;
Read 20 will give storybooks to children in the audience while Mrs. Santa does a holiday reading;
Get something to eat from Mellow Mushroom’s bake bus (they are donating for every slice sold);

Shop for artwork and crafts with proceeds going to their non-profits.
