2022 Christmas Tree Lighting Recap
Perfect weather, plenty of small cows, sheep and donkeys, and a table full of cookies set the scene for a wonderful Tree Lighting event. The community turned out to watch the iconic tree lighting by Dr. and Mrs. Raymond James of the Boca Grande Health Clinic. Thanks to all the Woman’s Club members who donated their time and baking skills to help make the annual Tree Lighting a success.
