Celebrating 6th Annual “Christmas in July” at Pipka’s of Door County, July 25

Even though Christmas comes but once a year, it’s something that some of us think about all year-round.

I you are thinking ahead, you may be doing some of your Christmas shopping during the summer months, and there’s no better place to shop than the stores of Door County! Join Pipka’s of Door County for its sixth-annual “Christmas in July” celebration on Sunday, July 25 from 10 am – 5 pm.

The Christmas in July custom began years ago when Pipka Ulvilden, owner of Pipka’s of Door County in Sister Bay, began inviting Santa up to Door County for a summer visit on July 25. Lines filled with kids and adults stepped up to take their pictures with Santa and to give him their very important Wish Lists.

This year, Santa and Mrs. Claus will again be spreading Christmas spirit at Pipka’s, along with everything else we love about Christmas – holiday treats and holiday shopping! Visitors to Pipka’s will have a chance to view the 2010 Santa Collection, and participate in a drawing for a chance to win a retired Pipka collectible!

So, if you enjoy the Christmas holiday and want to bring a little of that warmth to your already-warm summer, be sure to visit Pipka’s on July 25. They would love to see you – and Santa would too!

Pipka’s of Door County is a delightful shop in Sister Bay, selling Pipka’s Limited-Edition Figurines, original art and collage, one-of-a-kind jewelry, gifts and more. For further information about Pipka’s, please call 920.854.4392.
