Santa and Mrs. Claus were delighted to be in Caledon, and read ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas to all the kids in attendance before taking time for pictures — and Christmas gift requests – from the children. Everyone at the tree lighting ceremony counted down with the Town Crier before the large tree outside of Town Hall was lit for the first time this year.  Town Crier Andrew Welch delivered a holiday address to all in attendance. He reminded everyone of how important our relationships with each other and the land we live on are. He also said it's important for people to support local businesses during the holidays. The tree lighting ceremony featured snacks and hot drinks for all those in attendance.  Those looking to check out the tree at Town Hall, and other holiday light displays in Caledon, can visit haveyoursaycaledon.ca/holidaylightsmap to plan a sightseeing route around Caledon. --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2023-12-07 11:25:57 Post date GMT: 2023-12-07 16:25:57 Post modified date: 2023-12-07 11:25:59 Post modified date GMT: 2023-12-07 16:25:59 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
