Annual Tree Lighting scheduled for Dec. 7
The 43rd annual Scripps Ranch Tree Lighting will kick off the holiday season from 3 to 5 p.m. at Hoyt Park, 10711 Canyon Lake Drive, on Saturday, Dec. 7. The entire community is invited.
This year’s event is presented by Junior Troop 3263.
Enjoy a bake sale, hot chocolate and crafts. Participate in the spirited holiday sing-along.
Donate a new, unwrapped toy to the Toys for Tots toy drive for children. The mission of the U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots Program is to collect the toys and distribute them as holiday gifts to less fortunate children in the community. Any Scout who brings a toy will receive a free patch.
Attendees may also donate gently used girls’ clothing and accessories (excluding shoes) in little girls through junior sizes for the Girl Scout Troop 3958 girls’ clothing drive.
In addition, youngsters might see “reindeer” and possibly spot Santa at the tree lighting.
