In a festive celebration marking the holiday season, Charles Town hosted its annual tree-lighting event, as reported by The Journal. The event featured Santa and Mrs. Claus greeting children at Washington Hall, where kids made Christmas ornaments while awaiting their turn to share their wish lists. Following delightful festivities led by Mayor Bob Trainor, including a countdown to light the tree and downtown buildings, Santa read ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas. The evening concluded with caroling and local businesses staying open late, creating a warm community spirit for visitors seeking holiday gifts and enjoying the decorations throughout downtown.
