The holiday spirit was alive and well in Pabineau First Nation during our annual Tree Lighting event! The community came together for an evening full of joy, laughter, and festive cheer. It was a magical start to the holiday season, bringing people of all ages together to celebrate.

A Festive Kickoff to the Holidays

The highlight of the night was the lighting of the Christmas tree, a moment that marked the beginning of the holiday season for our community. As the tree lit up the night sky, everyone couldn’t help but smile, basking in the glow of the lights and the festive atmosphere.

Meet Santa, Mrs. Claus, and the Grinch

No holiday celebration is complete without a visit from the iconic figures of the season. Santa and Mrs. Claus were there to meet the children and hear their Christmas wishes, while the mischievous Grinch added a bit of fun and laughter to the evening. It was a true family affair, with everyone enjoying the magical moments of meeting these beloved characters.

Sleigh Ride and Delicious Treats

After the tree lighting, families piled into the sleigh for a fun and festive ride through the community. The winter wonderland setting made it a perfect opportunity to enjoy the outdoors and spend time with loved ones.

Back at the hall, everyone gathered to warm up with hot chocolate and delicious goodies, savoring the flavors of the season. A hearty meal followed, and the sense of community was felt by all as we shared stories, laughs, and memories from the evening.
