Cheverly Community Holiday Celebration and Tree Lighting!
Friday, December 2nd
Starting at 6:30 p.m. at the Cheverly Community Center!
Culminating at 7:45 p.m. at Legion Park
The tree lighting has classically been a Town Council sponsored event. This year we wanted to make some changes to encourage greater participation and a community focus for our Holiday Celebration and Tree Lighting. So, we are reorganizing the event around the theme of a Community Celebration of Caring and Sharing.
We are asking everyone to step forward and take the opportunity to give by: Bringing non-perishable food to be given by our Girl Scouts for use by local area food banks. Bring a card of well wishes to be sent to service members overseas. Sign a banner wishing Peace on Earth and add your well wishes and thoughts for this year.
In order to better accommodate families with younger children, we are starting the festivities at 6:30 p.m. at the Community Center. Our neighborhood schools will be singing for us and the CUMC Handbell choir will help us ring in the season.
This year we are offering some new coloring selections to allow our children to showcase their artistic sides as well as an essay opportunity focused on the themes of: “What I like most about Cheverly in the winter” or “My wishes for the New Year”.
The Cheverly Methodist Church will call us all to the tree lighting at Legion Park by ringing their bells at 7:45 p. m. and, at the Community Center we will walk down to Legion Park together where we will have caroling, light the tree and holiday displays and enjoy the warmth and light of our very first Cheverly Yule Log. Please do set aside some time to come together as a Cheverly Family and join in this Community Celebration of Caring and Sharing and, of course, loads of fun!
*If driving, park your cars down by Legion Park and walk up to the Community Center and your car will be ready for you after the tree lighting.
