Northern Lights Festival Hosts Community Celebration
Northern Lights Community Celebration a Must-Not-Miss!
If you’ve been looking for the perfect way to get into the holiday spirit, this is it. thanks to a tremendous amount of coordination, the Incline Village Crystal Bay Community and Business Association and many partners are hosting a fun-for-all festival on the UNR / Lake Tahoe Campus in Incline Village on December 6th. Head to the UNR / Lake Tahoe campus for fun for all to enjoy.
Kicking off the festivities is the the Incline Elementary Choir Middle School Jazz Band and the Incline High School Cheer Team. Before show, keep your eyes peeled for Santa and Mrs. Claus, who will be making their entrance on a North Lake Tahoe Fire Protection District Fire Truck.
As the temps are (finally) cooling off, the Washoe County Sheriff Department and Cpt. Cola will be on deck serving hot cocoa to keep everyone toasty. UNR will be providing hot cider and cookies, and Raley’s has donated snack size sandwiches, perfect for all to enjoy.
One of the most heartwarming parts of the celebration is the Giving Tree Forest featuring close to 30 holiday trees, each one decorated by a local organization to represent their mission and impact.
Each tree features opportunities for you to give back; whether through time, treasure, or talent. It is a beautiful reminder of the generosity that fuels our town.
Plus, community members will vote for their favorite tree (People’s Choice) and a committee will select two additional winners:
- Most Creative & Crafty Tree (Best use of handmade/recycled materials)
- Most On-Theme Tree (Best reflects the organization’s mission)
Make sure to cast your vote and help your favorite organization earn bragging rights for the year!
It wouldn’t be a celebration without games and crafts. Organizations from all over the region are hosting tables with interactive activities for kids and adults alike, including an elf scavenger hunt and holiday card making stations.
