Annual Christmas Tree Lighting
2020-12-06 17:00 - 18:00 (America/New_York) | Downtown Boca Grande, 301 Park Ave., Boca Grande, FL, 33921, United States
Join family and friends at 5:00pm on Sunday, December 6th, for the annual Lighting of the Boca Grande Community Christmas Tree. Sponsored by the Boca Grande Woman’s Club, the event is held across the street from Hudson’s Grocery. This ceremony dates back to 1954, when the Woman’s Club first planted the tree on this site.
In keeping with CDC guidelines for safe gatherings, the 2020 ceremony will be somewhat different than in previous years. Everyone attending should wear masks and maintain a safe distance from those not in your own family. Instead of group caroling, the event will feature a solo performance of “O Holy Night,” by Julia Pierce. Rather than setting out open trays of cookies, Woman’s Club volunteers will pass out bags of Christmas candy.
Despite those changes necessitated by Covid-19 protocol, some Tree Lighting traditions will remain the same. Members of the Boca Grande Clergy will offer readings and the timeless message of Christmas. Children from The Island School will participate in a live nativity scene.
Each year the BGWC designates an organization or individual to serve as Honorary Tree Lighter for the ceremony. This year the Woman’s Club has chosen four individuals to honor as our “Heroes of the Pandemic” for their extraordinary efforts in helping Boca Grande stay safe and active during the Covid-19 crisis. The 2020 Honorary Tree Lighters will be Dr. Lauren Hana, Mary O’Bannon, Jean Thompson and Joe Wier.
