This year the Gihon Valley Hall Committee and the Hyde Park Community Circle have partnered again to bring some holiday light and cheer to Hyde Park.
Thanks to the generous donations of community members we're able to illuminate two beautiful, evergreen wreaths on each end of town: one at the courthouse and another at the Gihon Valley Hall.
The lights will be turned on Saturday, December 4th to kick off the holiday season. All are welcome to visit the Gihon Valley Hall at 5pm on Saturday for the Lighting of the Wreaths. There will be live seasonal music by BettyJo Jivoff, and we'll be reading the light dedications aloud. Kindly wear a mask if you attend. Parking is available at the North Hyde Park post office.
The ceremony will also be live-streamed on our Facebook page if you'd prefer to join us virtually. Tune in here.
However you celebrate, we wish you a very merry holiday season!
