The 28th Annual Tree of Lights will once again light up the Village Green this holiday season. Please join us for the festivities on Saturday, December 1st starting at 5:30 p.m. (Rain/snow date December 2nd.)
The Rescue Squad is proud to illuminate the holiday tree, and thanks to Garden State Fireworks, the skies will light up with a spectacular fireworks show. The Rescue Squad will dedicate the tree to the memory of Watchung Police Chief (ret.) Sean Whelan, who served the Borough for many years.
Community members can be part of the celebration by placing a red light on our tree in honor of or white in memoriam of a person, family, friends and others. To place a light on the tree, please complete the Dedication Order Form and mail it along with your tax-deductible donation of $50.00 per light to the Wachung Rescue Squad, 10 Stirling Road, Watchung, NJ 07069.
The names of honorees and remembrances will be posted on the illuminated display on the Village Green in time for the ceremony for those dedications received by November 30th. The display and our website will be continually updated throughout the holiday season.
