The entire community is invited to help light the village's Christmas tree at 5 p.m. on Saturday.

The event, which will be held on the front lawn of the Village Hall, will feature live musical performance by local school children and a countdown to the lighting of the tree.  

Santa is expected to make a visit. Hot chocolate and cookies will be served to "warm your hearts and hands."

Non-perishable food item donations for the Sussex Food Pantry will be accepted during the event.
