Holiday Happenings in Carlisle

We absolutely love the holiday season. We get a chance to visit with many of our loyal customers as they unpack their holiday decorations from their Carlisle storage units, in preparation to deck the halls at home. Plus, there are so many things to see and do in our Carlisle, PA community this time of year; we are never at a loss for entertainment!

Our Trindle Self Storage staff is always eager to share with you what’s happening in our neck of the Pennsylvania “woods”. We’ve put together a list of events that you won’t want to miss this month.

• Looking for some live music? Why not head over to Dickinson College on December 3rd to hear some talented students perform in the Chamber Music Concert? The music begins at 7 PM at Rubendall Recital Hall, located in the Weiss Center for the Arts. If you can’t make it on the 3rd, there will be a seasonal concert on the 8th of December at Memorial Hall. For more information, contact the college at 717-243-5121.

• Santa Claus is coming to town on December 6th! Bring your family to downtown Carlisle for a tree lighting ceremony, free pictures with Santa, carriage rides and story time with Mrs. Claus.

• If you like history and exercise, you may want to join the First United Church of Christ as they lead an advent walking tour of our Carlisle churches on December 7th. The walk begins promptly at 1:15 PM and is free to attend. Help the UCC celebrate their 250th anniversary with this historic stroll. For more details, call 717-243-2512.
