Mayor McLeod and Village Trustees will be joined by Cub Scout Packs 297 and 100 to light the tree and kick off a festive fireworks display. Following the fireworks, participants will gather inside Village Hall for Santa visits, entertainment and light refreshments.

The Village’s annual Friendship Tree Lighting Ceremony features a large, living pine tree outside of Village Hall adorned with lights and more than 700 red bows. The growing tree serves as a reminder of our community’s continuing commitment to friendship and the environment. Non-perishable food and personal care item donations will be accepted for local food pantries during this event.
