The holidays are still six months away, but in celebration of the halfway point, Legacy Village will host a Christmas in July Bar Hop this evening that includes stops at Bar Louie, California Pizza Kitchen, the Melting Pot, Granite City Food & Brewery, Stir Crazy, Brio Tuscan Grille and the Capital Grille. Tickets are $10 per person and include a souvenir koozie, photo with Santa and food and drink specials from the Christmas in July Bar Hop menus offered at the participating Legacy Village restaurant or bar. Pre-registration is encouraged but tickets can also be purchased upon check-in, from 5 to 8 p.m., at the bottom of the escalators on Blossom Way, adjacent to Starbucks. Santa photos will be available during the same time frame. A portion of ticket proceeds will benefit the American Cancer Society. (Niesel)
