24th Annual

Tree Lighting Memorials

Newtown residents have once again supported their Christmas Tree Lighting with donations for both new bulbs and luminaries.

On behalf of the Newtown Chamber of Commerce and the Newtown Parks and Recreation Department, Christmas Tree Committee members released the final list of donor names for the 2008 holiday season.

“We wish to express our sincere thanks. May all of you be blessed in the coming year,” said Diana Johnson, co-chair of the committee.

The following contributions were received during the past few weeks, which will be used to cover some of the costs of the 24th Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony and luminaria display that were presented early last month.
