Stephens City is hosting its first Hometown Christmas from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday along Main Street.

The event will feature food, music, a craft show and sale, house tours, wagon rides and an appearance from Santa Claus.

Shoppers can take advantage of a business scavenger hunt with prizes! Scavenger hunt cards are available at any of the participating businesses. Once the cards have been filled out, they can be deposited in a box at Lantz’s Pharmacy, 5015 Main St. One lucky winner’s card will be drawn for a $25 gift card.

Businesses taking part in the scavenger hunt include Sophia’s, Treasures on Main, The Flower Center, The Cloth Peddler, Stephen City Outlet, Ed’s Heads, Clem’s Garage, Newtown Music Center, High Point Restaurant, Lantz’s Pharmacy and Classics on Main.
