6th October: Woodstock Christmas Lights 30th November
NIGHT OF 1000 CANDLES – WOODSTOCK TOWN SQUARE
SATURDAY 3Oth NOVEMBER, 5.30pm
This year’s Night Of 1000 Candles – the celebration around turning on the Christmas lights in Woodstock – will take place at 5:30pm on Saturday 30th November.
The event will have a more traditional feel this year; there will be no stage, and the focus will be on Christmas and our community.
The organizers would like to have some SATB singers to lead traditional carols, specifically those in the 100 Carols for Choirs book.
If you would like to take part, please let Babs know (choir@woodstockmusic.info) so that she can advise the organizers how many singers there might be.
