A Carillon Christmas
Dayton
The holiday season in Dayton wouldn’t be the same without the month-long festivities that take over the park. Every day excluding Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, visitors can enjoy activities across the 65-acre property, including visits with Santa, letter-writing to the North Pole, mini train rides and, of course, a look at the Deeds Carillon decked out in lights. New ventures this year include a holiday-themed scavenger hunt, entertainment by Victorian carolers and a rotating lineup on the Merry Melody Stage.
