The Tacachale Center will celebrate its 41st annual Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony at its campus on Thursday, Dec. 11.
Guest arrival will start at 6 p.m. and the tree-lighting activities are at 6:30 p.m. at 1621 NE Waldo Rd. in Gainesville.
The evening will feature live music, refreshments, and, if holiday magic prevails, a visit from Santa Claus. The celebration is free and open to the public, and community members are encouraged to join in this festive tradition.
“As we mark the 41st anniversary of this cherished tradition, we are grateful for the Gainesville community’s generosity and spirit,” said Agency for Persons with Disabilities Director Robert “Bob” Asztalos in a press release. “This event truly captures the joy of the season, and I encourage everyone to come out and be part of the celebration at Tacachale.”
