HERITAGE CHRISTMAS TREE “LIGHTS OF LOVE” COMING SOON

The Greencastle-Antrim Heritage Christmas tree will come to life in the square on November 17 with strings of glittering “Lights of Love” shining in honor of or in memory of loved ones throughout the Christmas season.

The Greencastle-Antrim Chamber of Commerce and West Penn Power, a FirstEnergy Corp. company, are proud to offer community members the opportunity to purchase a light on the tree and dedicate it to a loved one whose name will be displayed on scrolls in the square. The tree lighting ceremony on Friday, November 17, begins at 7 p.m.

The Lights of Love form is available for download from greencastlepachamber.org, at the Chamber office located at 217 E. Baltimore Street or by calling the Chamber at 717-597-4610. Lights of Love can also be purchased electronically from the Chamber’s website. The cost is $8 for one name, $15 for two names. Each additional name is $5. In order to be included on the scroll, your Lights of Love form must be completed and returned along with payment to the Chamber by Nov. 10, 2023.

The names will be scripted on decorative scrolls that will hang in the large corner windows of Growing With Music on the northwest corner of the square and the Fran Kenawell State Farm office on the southeast corner of the square. When registering, you can also choose to have an acknowledgement card mailed to your friend or family member at no extra charge.
