Holiday parade
Pleasanton's Hometown Holiday Parade and Tree Lighting Ceremony is set to return this Saturday evening (weather permitting), highlighted by the procession of festive floats and community groups on foot, plus musical performances and an appearance by Santa Claus.
The closure of Main Street will begin at 3:30 p.m. Saturday before the parade starts at 5 p.m. The tree lighting in front of the Museum on Main will take place at approximately 6:45 p.m.
This would mark the first holiday parade for downtown Pleasanton since 2018 after cancellations due to weather (2019) and the pandemic (2020).

'Caffeine for a Cause'
Visit Tri-Valley is partnering with coffee shops, tea houses and bubble tea cafes in Pleasanton, Dublin, Livermore and Danville for a new fundraising campaign through Dec. 31, "Caffeine for a Cause".
Residents and visitors to the Tri-Valley can take part by going to any five participating locations along the Tri-Valley Caffeine Trail and submit a photo from their trip on social media or via the Visit Tri-Valley website.
For each person who completes the "Caffeine for a Cause" challenge this holiday season, Visit Tri-Valley will donate $20 to local nonprofit Culinary Angels, a volunteer- and donation-based organization that provides healthy meals to patients with cancer and other serious health conditions. Participants can also earn a limited edition mug along the way.
Use #CaffeineForACause and tag @VisitTriValley when posting on social media. To find the list of participating shops, go to www.visittrivalley.com.
'Share Your Gratitude' with PUSD
The Pleasanton Unified School District is giving community members the chance to share their gratitude toward a PUSD educator or staff member this holiday season.
"The 'Share Your Gratitude' campaign is designed to encourage the PUSD community to acknowledge those who have made a positive impact on their lives," PUSD officials said.
In an example post shared by PUSD, Fairlands parent Carley Kennedy wrote, "Ms. Green lovingly cares for her students each and every day while inspiring them to love learning. She creates a comfortable classroom environment that enables them to take risks and broaden both their knowledge and confidence. We love you, Ms. Green!"
The messages can be submitted online via pusdedu.info/gratitude.
