Holiday Happenings in Greenwood Lake: Community Spirit in Full Swing
Dear Greenwood Lake Residents,
I hope this message finds you well and in good spirits as we dive into the holiday season! It’s a busy time of year here in our wonderful community, and I’m excited to share a few updates and events that will help us all get into the festive mood.
First, I’d like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the Greenwood Lake Lions Club for their generosity in organizing a very successful coat drive at Holy Rosary Church. The kindness and support from our residents continue to make a significant impact, and I’m proud of how we come together to help those in need, especially during the colder months.
In more holiday news, don’t forget that Trattoria Italiana Greenwood Lake is hosting a Santa Meet and Greet at the Greenwood Lake Community Center on Sunday, December 22nd, from 12pm to 3pm, rain or shine! If the weather turns rainy, the reindeer will have to stay home, but fear not—Santa will still be arriving in style with his sleigh! For those who sent letters to Santa, your gifts will be available for pickup, but the event is open to everyone. Come by for festive photos and the chance to share in the holiday spirit.
In addition, we’re excited to announce the Lighted House Contest—a fun way to showcase your holiday spirit! The registration deadline is December 18th, so be sure to sign up in time. Judging will take place on December 20th and 21st. For more details, please visit our village website.
As always, our Greenwood Lake Food Pantry is in need of donations, especially as we approach the holiday season. If you’re able, please consider dropping off non-perishable food items to help our neighbors who could use a little extra support during this time. Your generosity truly makes a difference!
Finally, I want to send a special thank you to the Greenwood Lake Elks 2067 for hosting a monthly senior luncheon at their lodge. This wonderful event provides a warm and welcoming place for our senior community members to gather. If you’re interested in attending or need more details, please reach out to Colleen Reilly at the Senior Center. She can help with sign-ups and any additional information you may need.
As always, I’m incredibly proud of our village and the way we come together to support one another. I encourage everyone to enjoy the holiday events, spread joy, and remember those in need.
Wishing you all a very happy and healthy holiday season!
Warm regards,
Tom Howley
Mayor of Greenwood Lake
