Even Santa Claus has the feel of Christmas past.
Holidays at Empire Mine also has many costumed docents around to provide both entertainment and educational information.
A variety of musicians and entertainers are spread around the grounds as well as some food vendors.
Plenty of kids activities to do as well.
