With a fresh coating of snow on the ground it's starting to look at lot like Christmas and that fresh snow might have something to do with Santa being in town. 

That's right, Spot Santa returns this year to the streets of Downtown Kelowna, but instead of a giant cardboard and plastic Christmas scene and Santa sitting in his “throne,” The Downtown Kelowna Association have asked Jolly Old St Nick to leave the North Pole and WALK the streets Downtown.

Don't be shy, Santa is still more than happy to have his picture taken with you. So if you see Santa having a coffee, or trying on his summer wear, snap a photo with him and upload it to the DKA Facebook page (facebook.com/downtownkelowna).

You could win a cool $250 to spend Downtown. 

Don’t forget to tag yourself and Downtown Kelowna.

Santa will cruise the streets from 12-5pm starting TODAY until Saturday December 22, 2012.  Click here for more info and rules.
