MAKES A GREAT GIFT!
In Meadowlark Falls, the Christmas season isn’t complete without the annual Christmas Festival - well except for last year when the whole shebang was cancelled. This year the festivities are back with the candiest canes, the hottest of hot cocoa and - of course - The Top Elf Trials! Our very own Jenny Snow - city council member and Top Elf Champ - will compete to keep the title over the Big City newcomer, Whitney Blanc. Which contestant has what it takes to win the Silver Bells Trophy and the title of Top Elf 2022? And which one has other ideas…
Told through an interactive scrapbook, notes, photos, audio, and home video, follow along as our host Genevieve Snow - owner of the general Store and town Nana - guides you through this merry adventure. Visit the online town map to learn more about the characters, discover the mystery of the Yulegarou (a special Christmas Cryptid lurking in the woods on the edge of town), and fall in love as Noel may actually tell Jenny those three little words.
Only YOU can be the judge of who wins Top Elf this year.
