Peppermint Village Fair

Please join the Sandwich Area Chamber of Commerce for their inaugural Peppermint Village Fair. We are hoping to encourage area families to come downtown for an evening of games, activities, refreshments and holiday shopping at our downtown businesses.

The event will include a living nativity and carolers from the Indian Valley Theatre production of a Christmas Carol. Santa's Elves will also be on hand to collect donations for the Sandwich Schools. The Peppermint Village Fair is free to attend.

The Chamber is currently looking for businesses that would like to provide either an activity, game or refreshment for our visitors. While this is not a traditional vendor fair, businesses and/or organizations are able to also promote their products or services during the event. Businesses may begin registering for spaces by printing the registration form by clicking here. Once the document opens, click "File" in the upper left hand corner, then select "Print".
