The Thanksgiving bird’s not even in the oven, and we’re already getting things lined up for the next holiday. It’s time to prepare for the annual Atlantic Avenue Tree Lighting Ceremony at the Belarusian Church (corner of Atlantic Avenue and Bond Street), on Thursday (12/4) at 6pm. Local school children will sing Christmas carols and musical performances, as well as a visit from the Fat Man, himself. Various stores along Atlantic Avenue from Hicks all the way up to 4th Ave will be participating in a window display contest (which Brownstoner also had something about). The winner will be announced at the lighting ceremony. Enjoy complimentary holiday treats from local restaurants and shops.
