A big THANK YOU to everyone who came out, participated, decorated, and helped make it such a fun night for our community!

A special thank you to those who started this wonderful tradition years ago, and to the Buchanan County Board of Supervisors for sponsoring the event and helping make it possible.

🚨 PSA: Please do NOT leave food out at the dumpsters at Council Park! 🚨

We already have bear problems in the area, and leaving food out like this only makes the situation worse by attracting more bears to the park. 🐻

For everyone’s safety, please dispose of your trash properly and do not leave food on the ground or around the dumpsters. We want to keep Council Park safe for our staff, visitors, and families who come to enjoy the park.

Please be mindful and help us keep our park safe! We appreciate everyone’s cooperation and understanding. Thank you! ❤️
