Framingham Tree Lighting - Singing schedule

The Town of Framingham Tree Lighting is planned for Friday, Dec. 12 at about 6 p.m.

Girl Scouts typically do a holiday sing-a-long on the steps of Town Hall awaiting the arrival of Santa. This a Framingham Girl Scouts sponsored event for all Girl Scout troops - Daisy, Brownie, Junior, etc.

This is also a family event. (I know several of the town's elementary schools are participating too). Please bring the entire family to the event, if you celebrate this holiday.

As this is a VERY crowded event at Memorial Hall downtown in Framingham, it can NOT be a dropoff event. It will be TOO CROWDED for a leader or two leaders to watch the entire troop.

We'd like to have a head count by Wednesday, Dec. 10 by noon. We realize if the weather turns bad that you and your family may change your mind.

Girls who participate will earn a patch (for the back of their vest). The cost will be deducted from their activity fun (estimated cost is about $1 to $1.50). A couple of girls participated last year and earned a caroling fun patch.

Any questions or thoughts or to RSVP, please e-mail co-leader Susan
