Rufus is an adorable elf made of lights that travels across town. There will be clues announced right here to help find Rufus at all his favorite hiding places around Livingston. This event starts November 25th and goes until December 13th. Clues will also be posted on the Livingston Special Events & Trade Days Facebook.
Rufus will be all over Livingston for around two weeks. He will remain in the same spot for only three days at a time though. Catch him while he is at each spot and get a chance to earn some Christmas money.
