Kick off the holiday season in Brownsville

Saturday, Dec. 1, 9 a.m.—BROWNSVILLE— On Saturday, Dec. 1, various committees of the Brownsville Community Church, West Windsor’s Beautification Committee and West Windsor Fire Department will sponsor three festive holiday events.

Start the day with Christmas shopping at the Brownsville Christmas Bazaar from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. at the West Windsor Town Hall. A fine gathering of artisans and crafters will be selling their wares at one of the area’s first Christmas Bazaars. Plus, shoppers will enjoy Christmas music by West Windsor fiddler, Adam Boyce.

Lunch will be available starting at 11 a.m., with an array homemade soups, stews, salads and sandwiches, as well as freshly baked desserts.

At approximately 4 p.m. at the West Windsor Town Hall (Route 44 and Brownsville Hartland Road) there will be the Town Holiday Tree Lighting. The event includes caroling, a fire pit, refreshments and two special visitors from the North Pole arriving on the West Windsor Volunteer Fire Department’s new hook-and-ladder.

At 5:30 p.m., the community will be treated to a concert of Christmas Music and Carols at the Brownsville Community Church. Rev. Christian Huebner has arranged this concert which will feature musicians of all ages on organ, brass and piano – including an original composition by Edmund “Skip” Downing; an original composition by Windsor’s Alexandria Leary; performances by Susan J. Downing, Seven Bowen, and Pastor Christian Huebner.

The Brownsville Community Church is located on the Brownsville-Hartland Road, between Albert Bridge School and the West Windsor Town Hall.

Admission is free for all events, and a free-will offering will be accepted at the church concert to help offset costs. All are welcome.
