The Village of Hartland is embracing the holiday spirit with its annual Hartland Lights 2024 event, featuring festive caroling and a tree lighting ceremony. The celebration, held on December 8, promises to be a heartwarming gathering for families and community members alike.

During the event, local volunteers and businesses play a crucial role in creating a joyful atmosphere. A representative from the Business Improvement District highlighted the importance of community support, thanking the Department of Public Works, police, fire departments, and local businesses for their contributions. Attendees are encouraged to explore downtown offerings, including discounts on hot chocolate and fun activities for children, such as crafting ornaments and making greeting cards for the elderly.

A highlight of the evening will be the tree lighting ceremony, featuring Jackson and Aubrey Bower, winners of an online contest. The event will also include live music, with performances from local high school students, adding to the festive cheer.

In addition to the tree lighting, the holiday train will make a stop in Hartland on Sunday evening, December 10, at 5:30 PM. This beloved tradition not only brings joy but also encourages community members to donate to the local food pantry, reinforcing the spirit of giving during the holiday season.

With a lineup of engaging activities and a strong sense of community, Hartland Lights 2024 is set to be a memorable celebration, bringing warmth and joy to all who attend.
