As of next Tuesday, November 30th at 5 p.m., Franklin Square will be aglow with thousands of holiday lights.
None other than Ben Franklin will be the illuminator, with Santa and Mrs. Claus also on hand accepting “Wish Lists” — so come prepared.
Enjoy hot chocolate and other treats as you officially ring in the holiday season.
Franklin Square will now be open from 5-8 p.m. on weekends through New Year’s Eve starting this Thanksgiving weekend, including Black Friday. Mini golf and the carousel are open — enjoy the last rides and holes-in-one in 2010!
