As you drive through the village this season, we hope the new Christmas lights on Main Street bring a little extra sparkle ✨ to your day.

These lights were made possible through the support of the Ilderton & Area Business Association and a generous grant from the Municipality of Middlesex Centre.

The IABA would like to extend a sincere and heartfelt thank-you to Reid for helping bring this project to life, and to Jeff for braving a cold, windy day to install the lights with such care. Your efforts have truly brightened our community.

We look forward to continuing projects that bring joy to our village, but for now, we simply wish everyone a very Merry Christmas 🎄 and a healthy, Happy New Year 🥳 .

Warmest holiday wishes,
The Ilderton & Area Business Association
