Entercom Radio – Washington, DC

Since we are in the holiday season, I looked back over the blog and found that I did not post about the 2017 Radio Santa visit to downtown DC! Although this station has changed their name and personnel, they partnered with Tysons Corner Center for so many of their events over the years. Jen, Kelly and Tommy have familiar voices on the radio as well as in person at the mall. Because of the association, the Santa from Tysons took a trip down to their DC studios to make an appearance. He took calls, played games, and posed for lots of photos. I wish all the people from 94.7 well, and I hope to continue to see them at events soon!

Lance Bass 2018 Christmas Tree Lighting

Tysons Corner Center

Earlier this month, I photographed Lance Bass at the 2018 Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony at Tysons Corner Center. Undoubtedly *NSYNC was one of the most popular bands of the 2000s, so his fan base is still strong. As we accompanied Lance through the BrandBox area in the mall, it was a challenge to keep selfie and autograph seekers from crowding around him!

In contrast to last year’s event, we did not get lucky with the weather. Not only was it very cold and rainy outside, but a layer of new snow blanketed the Plaza. Although not all of the scheduled performers could get out there for safety reasons, the show still went on. Additionally, the Christmas Tree was still lit! Thankfully, I think I have warmed up since then.

Snappy Hour and Wounded Warriors

Tysons Corner Center

Earlier this month I photographed the Snappy Hour and Wounded Warrior Project event at the Santa HQ in Tysons Corner Center. The evening following the opening ceremony of the set was reserved for the Wounded Warrior Project. Having this time specified for injured veterans and their families was very accommodating so they could spend some time in the set without a crowd waiting in line for them.

Snappy Hour

Another event that week was the Snappy Hour held at the Santa HQ set. In contrast to the kids that are usually the visitors, this event focused on adults looking to network with drinks and eats from Earl’s. Furthermore with Santa hanging around, it was perfect for ‘snapping’ some Instagrams!
