Annual Christmas tree lighting is Dec. 1
VETERANS PLAZA
The GRF Recreation Department is hosting the annual Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony, beginning at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 1, at Veterans Plaza. Santa will be there with his elves (courtesy of the LW Theater Club), who will be collecting unwrapped toys for the upcoming annual Toys for Tots event on Dec. 10 ( see page 1), so bring a gift for the little ones and have your picture taken with Old St. Nick.
The Theater Club will perform its own version of the closing scene of the movie “Elf.” Don’t miss your chance to participate, as GRF residents, their families and friends will be invited to join the ensemble. It’s time to start practicing in the shower.
The Optum Health Care Center will treat everyone to cookies and hot cider. Come early and be sure to stop by its table and say hello. Come kick off the holidays at Veterans Plaza and bring a friend, grandchild or two, and neighbors on Dec. 1.
