Details:

DAY: Sunday, Dec. 1, 2024
TIME: 6:00 PM
LOCATION: Ida Township Park

Join us for the Annual Village of Ida Community Christmas Tree Lighting, marking the beginning of the festive Christmas in Ida Festival! This beloved tradition at Ida Township Park features the illumination of our majestic 40-foot Blue Spruce evergreen, a cherished landmark that draws holiday visitors from near and far to the quaint hamlet of Ida.

We extend a warm invitation to families, businesses, community organizations, clubs, and school groups to craft your own unique ornaments for our magnificent tree. During the enchanting tree lighting ceremony, participants will have the delight of hanging their handcrafted ornaments, ranging from six to ten inches in diameter, adding a personal touch to the splendid display. Your ornament, adorned with your name for recognition, will join those from previous years in adorning the tree.

For those unable to attend the tree lighting event, fret not! Drop off your ornaments at convenient locations including Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, The Rusty Cup, and the Ida Branch Library.

As you gather with friends and neighbors, indulge in the warmth of hot chocolate and cookies, thoughtfully provided for your enjoyment. Serenade your senses with live acoustic holiday melodies while cozying up by the crackling warmth of a barrel firepit. Feel free to bring your own chairs for a comfortable and memorable evening under the starlit sky.

Come one, come all, and be a part of this cherished community tradition as we ignite the holiday spirit together!
