Vermont Reindeer Visit
December 24, 2024 , 12:30 pm – 3:30 pm
Meet Dasher & Cupid from the Vermont Reindeer Farm, before they trek to the North Pole to help Santa! The Vermont Reindeer Farm will be bringing Cupid and Dasher to Smuggs. The reindeer live on the Broe Family Farm in West Charleston, Vermont. Pauline Broe says the best part is seeing people’s faces when they realize that reindeer are real. To youngsters, she explains, “These are Santa’s reindeer. It’s our job to take care of the reindeer for Santa. We call ourselves the reindeer-keepers.” Among the information they share is that reindeer are a distinct subspecies of caribou and that both males and females have antlers, which they lose and regrow on an annual cycle. They will be next to the basketball courts in the main parking lot in Smugglers’ Resort Village.
