The Christmas Mailbox is here!! 📮🎅🏼

Get your letters to Santa Claus using our Christmas Mailbox at The Shops. The mailbox is now out and located just inside the main mall entrance doors and will be there until November 30th. This year, our mall elves will ensure your letters get to and from the North Pole. However, Santa’s response letters will ONLY be AVAILABLE FOR PICK-UP at our upcoming Christmas at The Shops event, happening on Saturday December 6th between 10:00am-3:00pm. All response letters will be ready for pick-up with our staff located beside Santa, during Christmas at The Shops. 🎄
