TONIGHT’S THE NIGHT!

The Annual Tree Lighting on is at 5pm tonight! It’s gonna be a chilly one so what better way to spend a Friday evening than to POP in a local restaurant or café to warm up!

Check out our 1st Annual Hot Chocolate Crawl list full of suggestions for you and your littles.

We’ll also be handing out postcard maps at the lighting so keep an eye out for our volunteers!
