December 6 | 4:00–6:00 PM | Warrenton Branch Greenway 

There’s something truly special about celebrating the holidays in a place steeped in history, and this December, we’re bringing that magic to life at the historic Warrenton Caboose. On Saturday, December 6, from 4:00 to 6:00 PM, families are invited to gather for a festive evening that blends the nostalgia of the past with the joy of the season. Once a symbol of travel and connection, the caboose now serves as a beloved community landmark and what better place to welcome Santa than a spot that’s carried so many stories through time?

This free family-friendly event is designed to spark wonder and togetherness. Guests can enjoy:

• 🍫 Warm hot chocolate to sip in the cold

• 🍪 Sweet holiday treats

• 🎨 Seasonal crafts for kids

• 📬 A chance to mail your letter straight to the North Pole!

And yes, Santa himself will be there, ready to greet children with a jolly smile and plenty of cheer. It’s a moment to capture memories, share wishes, and feel the spirit of the season in a place that’s part of our shared story.

This year, we’re inviting the community to help us stuff stockings for Fauquier seniors and children in need. It’s a simple way to make a meaningful impact because everyone deserves to feel remembered and cared for during the holidays.

🧦 What We’re Collecting:

• For seniors: Personal care items (toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant) and warm accessories (socks, gloves, hats, scarves)

• For children: Joyful stocking fillers and cheerful trinkets that spark smiles

Every donation is a small act of kindness that brings warmth and joy to someone in our community. Together, we can make this season brighter for those who need it most.

So come celebrate with us, sip cocoa, craft with your kids, drop off a donation, and take in the holiday magic at one of Fauquier’s most treasured landmarks. Santa at the Caboose is more than just an event, it’s a celebration of community, history, and family friendly fun.

We can’t wait to see you there! 💖
