2022’s Santa Planner: Where to See Santa in SWMI
The jolly man in the red suit will be in Kalamazoo this year, providing opportunities to visit with local families.
We’ve rounded up spots for your family to visit Santa Claus before Christmas to deliver their wish lists and snag some photos.
We’ve also listed Santa breakfasts, parades and other Christmas events where St. Nick will be in attendance.
Make a list – and check it twice – as there are many opportunities for the family to enjoy this special part of the holiday season.
Some events require advanced registration. Verify details with the event organizer.Â
Drake Road Orthodontics
We’re good at making people happy because we really know our patients and take the time to work with them one-on-one.
As the only local orthodontics practice with two doctors, DRO’s team collaborates for the best outcome of your smile. Each patient receives an individualized treatment plan, often using only one phase instead of two.
