Santa's coming early this year for holiday fun, festive shopping & second chances for rescue dogs!  Join us Sunday, November 8, 2026, from 12pm–4pm in Colorado Springs for a family- and pet-friendly holiday fundraiser benefiting Karl’s Canine Krew, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal rescue! 

FREE Santa Photos! Bring your pets, kids, family, or the whole crew for some holiday magic. Donations are encouraged and directly support rescue dogs in need. 

Shop Local, Give Back! Get a head start on your holiday shopping with local vendors offering unique gifts, services, goodies, and finds worth barking about! Your purchases help support rescue dogs while you check names off your Christmas list. Shop, treat yourself, find something special, and make a difference! 

Meet local author and professional Santa performer Tim Urbany (Santa Pops) for a special book signing of Apollo 8 and the Christmas Miracle: When Magic Met the Moon, with proceeds supporting Karl’s Canine Krew. 

Navy. Army. Marines. One Cause. This event brings together veterans, local businesses, and animal lovers in support of rescue dogs and the second chances they deserve.  Presented by Dash Away, Jordan’s K9’s, and Le Paw Spa, this is your chance to kick off the holiday season with a little Christmas magic and a whole lot of heart! 

Sunday, November 8, 2026 | 12:00–4:00 PM
