WINDHAM — The Windham Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce the return of Windham’s Annual Christmas Tree Lighting and Parade of Lights on Saturday, December 6th, from 5:00 to 7:00 PM in downtown Windham. This festive community tradition continues to grow each year, and we invite you to join us as we celebrate the start of the holiday season.
The evening will begin with the Parade of Lights, hosted by the Windham Hose Company. The parade will start at 5:00 PM on Mitchell Hollow Road, travel west on Main Street (Route 23), and conclude at the Windham–Ashland–Jewett School. All are welcome to participate by entering a decorated car, truck, trailer, or float.
Santa will arrive at approximately 5:30 PM at the Centre Church to light the town tree. Following the ceremony, he will be available inside the church for visits, free crafts, small gifts for children, and balloon twisting. The WAJ Chorus will perform traditional holiday carols, and a DJ will provide music throughout the event.
We are pleased to partner with the Windham Public Library to support Toys for Tots. Attendees who wish to participate are encouraged to bring an unwrapped gift and place it in the collection box located inside the Centre Church.
Complimentary hot chocolate, hot dogs, brownies, and popcorn will be provided courtesy of the Windham Hose Company, the PBA, and the Hensonville Hose Company. Free-will donations will be accepted.
We invite all members, residents, and visitors to come together and help welcome the holiday season in true Windham spirit. This is a free, family-friendly community event, and we look forward to celebrating with you.
