Nearly 700 families slowly drove by the Burrage Mansion on W. Crescent Avenue in Redlands on Sunday evening to see the second annual A Burrage Christmas drive-thru celebration, hosted by the Rochford Foundation.
With the backdrop of the Burrage Mansion’s spectacular display of lights and decorations, live performers brought the Christmas spirit to life.
Elves from the Great Y Circus cavorted in front of Elf Village and tussled over toys with the bothersome Grinch while a live Toy Soldier and giant Teddy Bear stood guard. Dr. Seuss characters collected letters from children to Santa for the North Pole mailbox.
