It’s beginning to look at lot like Christmas, and the annual Columbia Heights Tree Lighting Extravaganza is this Saturday at 6 pm at the Columbia Heights Civic Plaza (the triangle at 14th/Park/Kenyon.)
The event is always a lot of fun, and there will be free cocoa, snacks, and caroling, plus Santa and more. There will also be specials and fun at local restaurants.
It might be a good event to check out after the Georgia Avenue Winter Fest which is earlier that day! A whole day of holiday cheer.
The event was organized by theColumbia Heights Initiative, the folks behind Columbia Heights Day.
Here’s more from the Tree Lighting Facebook page.
This December on Saturday the 5th we will be decking the halls, and by halls we mean the Columbia Heights Civic Plaza for 5th Annual Columbia Heights Tree Lighting Extravaganza. Come to the plaza to enjoy complimentary cocoa, yummy Christmas treats, and carols. And perhaps even a visit from Santa! After the tree lighting, local restaurants and businesses will host additional festivities full of food, drinks and lots of holiday cheer!
Iluminación del árbol navideño de Columbia Heights
Este sábado 5 de diciembre estaremos adornando los pasillos, y cuando decimos pasillos nos referimos a la plaza cívica de Columbia Heights para nuestra quinta celebración anual de los festivos navideños! Ven a la plaza a disfrutar de chocolate caliente gratis, dulces navideños, y villancicos. De pronto nos visita de Santa! Después de la iluminación del árbol, los restaurantes locales y negocios del vecindario tendrán sus propias festividades llenas de comida, bebidas, y mucho espíritu navideño!
