The Arthur Manor Neighborhood Association held its annual Holiday Sing and Tree Lighting celebration on Sunday, December 13th at Davis Park. Friends and neighbors gathered at the large pine tree in the park to celebrate the holiday season with traditional Christmas and Hanukkah songs. Arthur Manor residents and friends enjoyed some good conversation, accompanied by hot chocolate and pastries. The unusually warm weather brought out a large number of holiday gatherers on Sunday afternoon.
After the tree lighting ceremony, Santa Claus then visited Davis Park to the delight of all children (young and old alike). Santa spread his holiday cheer by distributing candy canes to the children.
The Arthur Manor Holiday Sing and Tree lighting ceremony, which began in the 1930s, is held every year in December at Davis Park.
The Davis Park Christmas tree lights, which are new this year and are all white, will illuminate Davis Park for the remainder of the holiday season.
