    Holiday decorations….tree lighting….. Hmmm…. could this be Christmas we are discussing? Oh – don’t say it out loud – there may actually be three people in Santa Clarita that might get offended.

  9. James Parker says:

    Who even goes to mainstreet

  10. Joy Kiefer says:

    No parking at all…. One big traffic jam….Most articles said 3pm to 6pm…. The CHRISTMAS tree was not lit until 6:55pn kids were cranky, tired…really… We know it’s really all about shopping That is why you have it before Thanksgiving:..when I re-read another article buried in it it said the Tree would be lit AROUND 7pm. And so obvious that you don’t want to call it a Christmas event or tree..
