CHRISTMAS TREE LIGHTING

Saturday, November 24, 2018 at 6:00 pm

            Last year, Downingtown Good Neighbor Christmas, Inc. celebrated the unveiling of the new 17’ Giant Everest Christmas Tree along with a record turn out from the community.  It was a beautiful night, complete with St. Joseph’s Choir, cookies and hot chocolate, a face painter for the kids and, of course, Santa!  One spectator said, “The Tree Lighting was like a Hallmark moment.” Wow! What a compliment! 

            If you enjoyed it last year, be sure to join us for the 2018 Christmas Tree Lighting.  We have purchased a 3’ extension for the tree, making it a 20’ tree with the 3’ star on top.  The extension has arrived and we are ready – so bring on Christmas!  We will also be adding to the event this year – additional music, a S’mores station and small crafts for the kids! 

            The Christmas Tree sits along Business Rt.30 right next the Log House.  Our event is held in the Log House field, below the Christmas Tree on Saturday, November 24.  The event starts at 6:00 pm with Santa arriving around 6:30 pm for a short visit.  Please mark it on your calendar and join us for the start of the Christmas season in Downingtown!
