HOLLEY – A crowd gathers at the Public Square for Holley’s annual tree-lighting ceremony on Saturday evening.
Holley Mayor Mark Bower reads many names of residents honored with memory bulbs on the tree before the lights were turned on.
Holley added a large Santa statue to the Public Square that will be out during the Christmas season greeting people.
Many of the street lights in the Square also have red and green bulbs to add to the holiday ambiance.
The village put in two tall ornament stackers by the community Christmas tree.
There is also an 8-1/2-foot wide ornament arch in front of the old Holley High School, which are now apartments and the village offices.
Holley students in grades four to six sang Christmas carols before the tree was lighted on Saturday.
There also was an inflatable igloo for people to go inside and get a photo.
The Holley Community Free Library hosted a Christmas social after the tree-lighting.
