Lawrence Township’s annual Christmas Tree lighting ceremony will take place at 6 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 9, at the municipal building at 2207 Lawrence Rd. (Route 206).

Township officials will make a few brief statements, and members of the Lawrence High School Madrigal Choir will perform several holiday tunes.

Santa Claus, escorted by volunteer firefighters from Lawrence Road Fire Co., will then arrive to pose for photos with children and their families.

Refreshments will be served courtesy of Terhune Orchards.
