Hometown Holidays


Hometown Holidays in Morton brings festive cheer with two exciting events: Village Skate and Holidazzle. Village Skate features an outdoor ice skating rink where families can enjoy music, skating, and fun, all while supporting local schools, as proceeds from the event benefit participating Morton schools. Meanwhile, Holidazzle encourages holiday shoppers to explore and support local brick-and-mortar businesses. Participants receive bingo cards with various Morton shops, offering a fun and engaging way to discover and promote small businesses in town during the holiday season.
