Children singing, bands playing, live mannequins, photos with Santa, and local businesses decorated for the Christmas season.  All this and more as the Madison Kiwanis Club coordinated “Light Up Madison” on Saturday, December 3, 2011 in downtown Madison.  Streets were closed so that local citizens and visitors could stroll the streets enjoying the sights and sounds and foods of the winter months.  Hats off to the Kiwanis Club members and all others who worked hard to give the public–young and old–a great time of community fellowship.

It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

After eight hours in Four Freedoms Park yesterday, Erin Kelly (a volunteer who is spending her break from college helping), and Kelli O’Quinn and Curt Fletcher of AOK Electric, shown left to right, were back for another day of work running the electrical wiring and putting up the lights on one of the huge trees in the park for Light Up Madison. AOK Electric is donating their time for the project. “It’s our way of giving back to the community,” said O’Quinn. “And it’s a lot of fun, too.” She added that the three of them were enjoying having the cooler weather in which to work. “Feels a lot more like Christmas,” she said. Members of the Madison Woman’s Club and Joyce Wells of Wells Farm Supply are also donating their time to the project.
