PORTSMOUTH – Three great community organizations, Friends of Portsmouth (FOP), Main Street Portsmouth in Bloom (MSPiB) and the Scioto County Visitor's Bureau, are teaming up to create a winter wonderland on Court Street this month with a new event: Hallmark Hometown Huladays.
The Christmas in July event will feature music from local band Wild Son, food from Scioto Ribber, a “Summer Santa,” special edition ornaments, making ornaments for the large Winterfest Christmas tree, potlucks, and more.
People can tour the stage, attend events and listen to music for just $25. For $50, they can also receive a meal prepared by the Scioto Ribber.
“This is a family-friendly Christmas in July event hosted by Main Street Portsmouth in Bloom and Friends of Portsmouth to raise funds,” explained FOP Executive Director Bryan Smith. “People can expect great food, fun entertainment at 7 p.m., Christmas events, face painting, a snow cone truck, a beer garden, and it’s going to be a very festive Christmas in July.”
MSPiB Executive Director Emily Uldrich praised their efforts, saying people have been wanting something like this event.
“I’m very excited to partner with Friends of Portsmouth and the Tourism Bureau to put on a big fundraiser for holiday attractions,” Uldrich said. “My neighbors have been telling me how much they miss Ribs on the Ribber, where they would close the street for ribs. I said, ‘Oh, I’ve got the event for you!’ We’ll have all kinds of fun activities and a tent on the street for shade. It’s going to be a fun time in downtown Portsmouth.”
Funding from the event will be used to finance holiday lighting for the MSPiB and the FOP.
“We got together as a group to try to figure out how to raise more money for the city’s lights,” Smith said. “So this is what we came up with. We’ve been talking about it for four or five months and we’re ready for Christmas in July. Any money raised will help our organizations buy new lights or replace the ones that are being refurbished. I’d like to say we’ll raise $20,000, but anything we can get will help make the holiday season better.”
Smith said it was very important to invest in the holiday season.
“We attract a lot of people during the holidays,” Smith said. “We get a lot of visitors who want to see our lights, attend our events, shop in our stores, eat in our restaurants and stay in our hotels. It brings a lot of money to the area and we know the more we invest in those efforts, the more successful we will be.”
Tickets for the event are available at the Scioto County Community Action Organization Welcome Center, Neal Hatcher Real Estate Office, or online by visiting all three organizations’ Facebook pages. Huladays will take place July 20, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Court Street, between Front and Second Streets.
