In 1998, the North City Business District held its first Christmas Tree lighting ceremony. Over the years, this annual event grew to include members of both the Ridgecrest and North City neighborhoods, all working together to host something special for our community.
Today, area merchants donate hot chocolate, coffee, cookies, candy canes, and toys, Walgreens takes free holiday photos, and the intrepid Shoreline Water District staff light a “tree” way up on top of our area’s tallest water reservoir. This year’s event is scheduled for Saturday, December 8 from 6:30 – 7:30 pm at Les Schwab , and will feature live music by the Around the Sound Band, as well as a special visit from Saint Nicholas and his elves. Stop by to share some holiday cheer!
Odd that there has been nary a peep from the Ronald-budget-bashers about this arguably excessive and risky use of Shoreline Water District resources. Afraid of being called a Scrooge?
