The La Crescenta Christmas Tree Lighting: A Heartwarming Tradition by Robbyn Battles
Wednesday, December 6, 6:00 pm at the La Crescenta Library
In the heart of La Crescenta, a Christmas tradition has been glowing brightly for the past nine years, thanks to the dedication and community spirit of Robbyn Battles. This beloved tradition began when Robbyn, then serving as the Crescenta Valley Town Council President, received approval from Supervisor Mike Antonovich to set up a Christmas tree in the courtyard of the La Crescenta Library. Review all the fun details on the La Crescenta Christmas Tree Facebook page.
Robbyn has meticulously adorned this space each year with a stunning Christmas tree surrounded by special decorations. These ornaments aren’t just any decorations; they are heartfelt contributions made or donated by community members, symbolizing the unity and festive spirit of La Crescenta.
The event quickly became more than just a tree lighting; it evolved into a cherished gathering, bringing residents together to celebrate the season’s joy. From live music and entertainment to crafts and spectacular tree lighting, the event encapsulates the warmth and charm of the community.
This year’s celebration, however, holds a bittersweet note. After nine years of unwavering commitment and love for this tradition, Robbyn Battles has announced that this will be her final year hosting the La Crescenta Christmas Tree Lighting. Through this event, her contribution to the community will be fondly remembered and deeply missed.
As we approach this year’s tree lighting, let’s come together to celebrate the holiday season and the incredible legacy that Robbyn has built. It’s a time to honor the joy and community spirit she has fostered through this wonderful Christmas tradition in La Crescenta.
