PHOTOS: Holiday Spirit Shines on Festival Night in Lexington Center

Click through the images below to scope out some scenes from around Lexington Center during the town's annual Festival Night and holiday tree lighting, held Friday, Nov. 30.

It's always among the most wonderful times of the year when the crowd gathers 'round Emery Park awaiting the arrival of Santa Claus, who rides up on a fire truck to pass out candy canes and count down to the tree-lighting. Yes, Festival Night sure was fun. But we couldn't be everywhere, so we're hoping you can help share images of Lexingtonians greeting the season. We invite you to share photos of Lexington's annual Festival Night so the whole town can honor those who serve our nation.
