What will happen

The Annual Tree Lighting is a magical annual event that brings our community together in anticipation of the holiday season. As a Scout BSA Troop, we proudly assist in this ceremonial occasion, ensuring that everyone can enjoy warm beverages and delicious snacks. After the twinkling lights illuminate our festive tree, we Scouts offer attendees hot chocolate, tea and an assortment of snacks. It’s a time of joy, warmth, and community spirit that truly captures the essence of the season. This spirit of giving continues at our upcoming Giving Tree event, where we will be sorting and bundling gifts for distribution.

In addition to the joyous Tree Lighting ceremony, we are excited to announce that our Boy Scouts troop will be conducting a Wreath Sale Fundraiser. This will take place both before and during the event. Your support through purchasing these beautiful, handcrafted wreaths will directly benefit our troop's activities and initiatives. It's a wonderful opportunity to decorate your home for the holidays while supporting the local Boy Scouts. We look forward to your participation and appreciate your contribution to our cause.

Historian's notes

Over this weekend there was the Christmas Wreath Sale (Saturday and Sunday) at OLA (Our Lady of Angels). All the money profited from the sales would go directly into funding our trips. As the results go, we nearly sold out all the wreaths! However, the sales were just an opening act to the amazing OLA Christmas lights which dazzled the Sunday night. Hot Cocoa and Cookies kept us holly jolly, as everyone present embraced the effort.
