Downtown shops will open their doors late and offer goodies and treats while the entire town turns out for “the kind of holiday cheer and goodwill that keeps the hearth fires burning ‘til spring,” the Red Lodge Visitors Center writes.
The Stroll starts at 5 pm with the increasingly popular “Blade Parade” and stores stay open until around 9 pm. Families are encouraged to bring their holiday shopping lists.
“It’s a perfect recipe for enjoying the holiday season: Ski, Stroll, & Stay the night,” Red Lodge Visitors Center adds.
