The Sheridan Christmas Stroll is celebrating 25 years as the official kick off of the Christmas season for the Sheridan Chamber of Commerce and downtown businesses.
According to the Chamber, Christmas Stroll brings up to 3,000 shoppers to Sheridan. The Stroll includes events and activities such as free photos with Santa and Mrs. Claus, make-your-own-ornaments, wagon rides, in-store specials, Christmas carolers, winning Stroll buttons and more.
Every year, businesses throughout Sheridan County participate, many through Christmas themed window decorations.
While appearing on Sheridan Media’s Public Pulse program, Chamber Chief Executive Officer Dixie Johnson told listeners the previous year’s full day of events was a hit and announced this year’s theme.

Every year, Sheridan County students in grades 1-6 submit designs for the Stroll button based on the year’s theme. The winning design is featured on the buttons. Chamber and participating businesses sell these Stroll buttons. Starting the night of Stroll, and through Christmas Eve, Stroll button holders can check all participating businesses for the number that matches their Stroll button number. If found, the individual with the winning button number receives a prize of at least a $50 value from the business.
For local businesses wishing to participate in the Stroll, Johnson said the deadline is fast approaching.

According to the Chamber, all proceeds from the Christmas Stroll go to the purchase of additional and replacement Christmas decorations for the Sheridan area.
