Check out out Nutcracker Stroll & Auction this holiday season!

Come to Downtown Carlisle and stroll around to check out over 40 nutcrackers that have been created by our downtown merchants! The nutcrackers will be on display at businesses now though the first weekend in January. They can be found on display in the windows or placed somewhere inside their business.
See if you can find them all while finishing up your holiday shopping and supporting our small, local businesses.
All nutcrackers are up for auction so if one (or more) catches your eye, just scan the QR Code at that business to place a bid. Proceeds from the auction will go to the Downtown Carlisle Association to purchase nutcrackers for next year's Nutcracker Stoll.
CLICK HERE to view all of the nutcrackers up for auction.
Please keep in mind a handful of nutcrackers have not been completed yet. Please be patient as our small business owners are doing there best trying to get everything completed during this busy time of year.
