Christmas Comes To Rockbridge Baths
Christmas Comes To Rockbridge Baths
A large crowd turned out for the annual lighting of the swinging bridge in Rockbridge Baths Sunday night, an event that is continuing to grow in popularity. Those attending sang Christmas carols and enjoyed cider, hot chocolate and other refreshments. Children got to have their photos made with Santa and, if they were brave enough, met with the Grinch, who proved to be not so Grinchy. Santa will return to Rockbridge Baths this Saturday, Dec. 2, from 8 to 10 a.m. at the firehouse for the Breakfast with Santa event. (Stephanie Mikels Blevins photos) 11/28/2023 11:00 PM

Christmas Begins In Lexington
Christmas Begins In Lexington
The streets of downtown Lexington were alive with the sounds of Christmas this past Friday as hundreds of people gathered for the 28th annual candlelight processional and tree lighting. Carolers gathered outside Oak Grove Cemetery and carried candles down Main Street with Hopkins Green being the final destination of the sojourn. There was more singing at Hopkins Green and Mayor Frank Friedman counted down to the tree lighting. Children had a chance to chat with Santa and Mrs. Claus who handed out seasonal cheer and candy canes. (Joann Ware photos) 11/28/2023 11:00 PM
