The Country Christmas Loft, a landmark on U.S. Route 7 for nearly 50 years is Kicking Off the Holiday Season this Sunday, September 17. Three Months To Christmas is a way to bring some smiles to neighbors, friends, and passers-by on the busy highway.

On the lawn outside the Loft with the animated figures looking on, there will be free ice cream samples from Island Homemade Ice Cream, the Gingerbread People for photos, and Holiday music will fill the air.

There is no admission charge and no purchase is necessary, but visitors who want to get in the spirit early are asked to bring a new, unwrapped toy to be donated to the Toys for Kids program. Toys for Kids of Vermont is a volunteer program sponsored by the Vermont Marine Corps League which collects new, unwrapped toys during the Christmas season and oversees their distribution to needy children in Vermont. All money collected stays in Vermont and is used to purchase age-appropriate toys to supplement donations.
