Thanksgiving is right around corner, it is fun to start feel like holidays! Every year, each city will light up a tree to symbolize the start of the Holiday season. It has been a local tradition for many years in the cities where we live. It has become a tradition for many families to kick off the Holiday season by attending the Tree Lighting ceremony. A fun evening for families and friends to get together to witness the lighting ceremony and start the celebration. I have compiled a schedule of Tree Lighting in the cities around San Ramon Valley and Tri-Valley. Please make sure to double check the city website for accuracy. Happy Holidays to all!!!
