St. Anthony Winter in the Village is an annual event that celebrates the joys of winter in St. Anthony Village. It is held at the St. Anthony Shopping Center. There is a very popular trolley ride, and some of the other ongoing activities include the Happy Feet Scavenger Hunt, hot chocolate and food sampling, painting, and S'mores. There are activities at specific times, such as making snowflakes out of recycled books, meeting Santa, and a snowball fight. The hosts urge attendants to bring a wrapped gift to donate to seniors. Select stores have collection barrels for this specific purpose.
