It truly takes a Village to create a magical holiday event for our community…but we made magic again tonight!! 🧑🏼‍🎄 After months of preparation, countless hours of dedication from amazing volunteers, generous donations, and the unwavering support of our incredible sponsors, we were able to bring you another successful Tinsel n' Lights!
From our incredible Board to nearly every Village employee, the Waverly School District, and the local businesses who joined forces to make this event possible, it’s safe to say this year’s celebration was a team effort.
Of course, we can’t forget the perfect holiday weather, courtesy of Mother Nature, who blessed us with just the right chill for the occasion so the ice sculptures dont melt immediately. And most importantly, a huge thank you to YOU, our wonderful community, for coming together to spread some much-needed holiday cheer. Your presence tonight filled our hearts and made this event truly magical. 💖
Merry Christmas, everyone, and we can’t wait to see you again next year! 🎅🎄✨
Here are just a few snapshots from tonight’s unforgettable event
