Here’s the Plan:
Kick-Off Game: We’ll meet in the park near the market and start with a quick, Christmas-themed game to break the ice, get everyone warmed up, and help us all get to know each other.
Explore the Christkindl Market: Together, we’ll walk through the heart of this traditional German holiday market. You’ll enjoy:
Holiday vibes: Festive music, beautiful decorations, and cozy holiday cheer.
Unique vendors: Explore handmade gifts, ornaments, and specialty foods like roasted nuts, pretzels, and chocolates.
Delicious drinks: Warm up with a hot chocolate, cider, or non-alcoholic GlĂĽhwein (a classic spiced holiday drink).
Light Display Adventure: After soaking in the market, we’ll head over to the stunning holiday light display at the City & County Building. This is the perfect spot for group photos and capturing the joy of the season.
Optional Food Stop: After the event, we’ll likely grab a bite at one of the many nearby restaurants or food vendors to keep the good vibes going over a shared meal.
