As speakers blasted Bing Crosby’s “I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas,” volunteers transported, hoisted and placed a 30-foot Christmas tree inside Valhalla Tahoe’s Grand Hall on Friday

The annual, three-day Valhalla Holiday Craft Faire and Winter Wanderland will be Friday through Sunday, Nov. 22-14, at the Tallac Historic Site on Emerald Bay Road in South Lake Tahoe.  There will be more than 30 local vendors along with holiday music and food.

“Bring the little ones down to get pictures with Mr. & Mrs. Claus in front of a roaring fire,” an organizer said. “Listen to the South Lake Tahoe Children’s Choir and let the holidays surround you.”

On Friday, “A Charlie Brown Christmas” will be performed from 4:30-7:30 p.m. by the Peanuts Gang Trio in the hearth.

Then bring the little ones down on Saturday and Sunday to get pictures with Mr. and Mrs. Claus in front of a roaring fire. Lake Tahoe Unified School District’s Choral Association will line the balcony and perform holiday favorites at 11:30 and 2:30 p.m. on Saturday and at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday.

The Oakland Jazz Choir will perform the Holiday Concert at 7 p.m. Saturday. Purchasing tickets in advance is advised because the show tends to sell out.
