Peace on Earth
Lake Highlands is officially ready for Christmas, thanks to the LH Junior Women’s League and their annual Light Up the Highlands event Sunday afternoon. As children young and old looked on in wonder, Santa lit up the Christmas tree at the Town Center.
League volunteers hosted a Christmas Market showcasing small local businesses and live performances by student dancers and singers. Kids enjoyed skating, making crafts, riding the snow luge and petting real reindeer.
You’ll find my photos here.
Lake Highlands Junior Women’s League has raised almost $1 million dollars for community projects since the group was founded in 2004. Their next big event is Run the Highlands in April.
Fun with friends
