With the help of a gaggle of little kids, 1st Selectman Jim Marpe lit the town Christmas tree this evening, on the Town Hall lawn.
Staples’ Orphenians sang. The Westport Historical Society provided hot chocolate. Youngsters gleefully counted down “3 … 2 … 1!”
Rockefeller Center it ain’t.
But it doesn’t have to be. Another Westport holiday season has “officially” begun.
Luke Rosenberg leads the Staples Orphenians.
Boys and girls help 1st Selectman Jim Marpe with the countdown.
The tree is lit. It’s on the front lawn of Town Hall, on Myrtle Avenue.
