Pawling’s Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony (Photos)
Tonight was Pawling’s annual tree lighting ceremony, which is a fabulous outdoor party sponsored by our local chamber of commerce every year on the first Friday in December. Though it was raining, Santa and his elves did come for a visit, and the folks who braved the weather were treated to hot cocoa and holiday music.
