A big thank you to all of the volunteers from the BIA tonight and a BIGGER thank you to the FC volunteer group who worked countless hours getting ready for light up the park.

Our downtown looks spectacular and it truly takes a village to make something like this so special ❤️❤️

We always need MORE help, more hands, less work.

So to all of you, you know who you are, be proud of a great job and the dedication you’ve shown.
