More Than Just Lights In Bronson Park
One of the things we look forward to is driving downtown Kalamazoo at Christmas time and seeing Bronson Park all lit up. Always makes me want to go to one of my favorite watering holes and get lit up myself. Anyway, did you know there's a lot more than just lighting the lights in the park? There's a whole Tree Lighting Ceremony.
According to our friends at Kzoo Parks and Recreation, the mayor, city commissioners, the city manager and Santa will read "Twas The Night before Christmas", light the Christmas trees and more on November 24th. Here's the schedule of events courtesy of Kzoo Parks and Recreation...
