Lights out, then on in Snow Hill, Wednesday

(Nov. 24, 2016) Not only will the town’s tree at Byrd Park be lit up during an event scheduled for Wednesday beginning at 5:15 p.m., but all of the town’s decorations, from the displays lining the loop of the park to the swans on the drawbridge to the snowflakes on the utility poles marking the route between them, will as well.
Kicking off the event at the park and warming up the crowd will be Nick Haglich, who has been scheduled to play holiday favorites until about 5:30 p.m. when the event formally begins.
Hot chocolate will be served, carols will be sun and spirits will be made light, first figuratively, then literally as the holiday displays are turned on for the season.
“Both the Free Indeed Baptist Ministries choir and the Snow Hill Middle School choir will perform, and Snow Hill Elementary School teacher Connie West will read “T’was the Night Before Christmas,” Ann Gibb, event organizer, said.
Mayor Charlie Dorman is scheduled to address the crowd, and Pastor Ken Ellison is scheduled to deliver the invocation.
“Everyone will get a red bow to decorate the tree, and the Ladies Auxiliary of the Snow Hill Volunteer Fire Company will be serving hot chocolate,” she said.
Children’s hot chocolate will be free, sponsored by the Berlin Ocean City Optimist Club, and hot dogs will be available to purchase for one dollar. Hot chocolate can be purchased for 50 cents, Gibb said.
