Many thanks to all for supporting the Christmas in July event to support the Un-trim-A-Tree Holiday Gift Program for needy kids. Santa and Mrs. Claus were down on vacation in Old Town Manassas and they of course were a big hit. I wish I had a video of this one little girl walking down Battle Street when she noticed Santa. Her expression was priceless! This program continues to be about a kid and a toy.  Nine Restaurants in Old Town Manassas hosted this event by selling raffle tickets, accepting toy donations, live music and fun contests. This was definitely a fun and comical evening. Here’s a huge Cheers to these super restaurants – Mackey’s American Pub, City tavern, Malone’s, City Square, Carmello’s, Monza, Philadelphia Tavern, Katerina’s, Old Town Sports Pub and Grounds Central Station.
