The North Fairhaven Improvement Association had clear skies, although rain was imminent, on Friday, 12/1/23, for the annual lighting of Benoit Square.
Elves roamed the grounds and children and adults all sang while waiting for Santa to arrive on an antique fire truck.
The Big Guy listened to all the children (and some adults) as they told him their Christmas wishes.
The lights are on nightly and the public is encouraged to go by and enjoy the display.
