South Brooklyn Lights Up for Christmas

(Microsoft Clip Art – Christmas Tree)

Here is an excerpt of Senator Marty Golden’s letter inviting the Sheepshead Bay community to this week’s Christmas tree lightings:

Each year I host Christmas tree lightings to bring the community together in joy and togetherness so that we can all forget about the stresses of the season and focus on the good things in our lives. At these special events we gather to sing Christmas Carols, sip Hot Coco and welcome a very special visitor, Santa Claus! I hope you can join myself and the Bay Ridge Parks Task Force at one of these special events. Donations for Toys for Tots will be collected. I encourage you all to bring a new, unwrapped toy to make the holidays happy for a needy child.

Here is the information about the lightings:
