Brought To You By

2024 Passport
NOTE: Before Going any further. Please respect businesses & use common sense. Restaurants are hiding Elves where people have to go through their dining room searching. No business is hiding them where the public wouldn't normally be welcome! Yes we say this for a reason! 

Rochester Main Street is happy to bring back Elf Off The shelf as part of the Santa Series. Starting December 4th and going until December 14th. Participants will be able search downtown and find all the Elves they can. They may be hidden in public places, inside businesses, in windows. We will have a passport ready to fill out, all you have to do is write down where you found the Elf! Each elf is worth 1 free raffle ticket! 

The Event ends on December 14th when you can bring your passport to Santa & The Grinch, who will trade your passport for raffle tickets! Santa will be on Central Square from 11 am - 2 pm.  He will be available for Free Photos as well possibly some other surprises!​

How to Enter:
Download the Passport Here.
There are 3 ways to earn raffle tickets.
1)Write down a description of where you found each elf, and bring it to Santa's helpers. Each elf equals 1 raffle ticket! 
2) Make a purchase of $10 or more from any downtown business and attach the receipt to your passport. 
3) Bring Santa a new toy for donation to Holiday's On The Hill and receive 5 free Raffle tickets!

What do the elves look like:
We are doing things a bit differently this year, many stores will have their own custom Elf from previous years. They are 26" tall and will display the face of either the owner or an employee! See an example below! However we are also putting out some of the wooden elf cutouts we had a few years ago, and business are allowed to hide Any type of elf they want. (We may also hide some Christmas Elf Ducks throughout the event) We ask you take only 1 duck a day and some of these things are SMALL. 
Participating Businesses:  This year you need to figure this out for yourself. If your struggling, Santa may give you some clues.
