As part of the “Christmas in the Gorge” festivities, the Columbia Gorge Interpretive Center Museum is hosting a free public “Sing-Along” Saturday, Dec. 7th, starting sharply at 2:30 p.m. The singing will conclude at 3:30, with holiday refreshments being served until 4:30. Christmas-Sing-Along Museum admission is free for Skamania County residents on Saturday, Dec. 7. The public sing-along has become an annual tradition and has been enjoyed by those who love to sing, as well as by those who enjoy listening.
Children are welcome and may meet Santa and his helper and receive a special goodie bag and the opportunity to have their photo taken on Santa’s lap. When asked if he was flying via Rudolph, he replied, “No, I want him to rest up for the big day later in the month. Instead, I will fly (incognito, of course!) on a regular commercial airline.” For additional information about all the activities of “Christmas in the Gorge,” contact the Skamania County Chamber of Commerce (800) 989-9178 or (509) 427-8911. This is a community-wide event. An added bonus for Skamania County residents is Museum admission is free Saturday, Dec. 1st.
