The Women's club just said Tree lighting, not holiday Tree. I think this is a wonderful event and Thank them very much for this event. I also thank the fire company for hosting Santa.

'Holiday tree celebration?' Robbinsville mayor says not in his town - Will proudly host 'Christmas tree lighting'

ROBBINSVILLE — Robbinsville Mayor David Fried today declared in an open letter to township residents that he would proudly hold a "Christmas" tree lighting ceremony and criticized any politically correct or secular terms for the event.

A secular "tree lighting ceremony" had been advertised for the township, but Fried said he was upset the township could identify the "Hanukkah Menorah" and not the Christmas tree.

"This is just not right," Fried said. "We can say we have a Menorah, a Jewish religious symbol, but for some reason we can't call our tree what it is - a Christmas tree, which is not even a religious symbol. The tree is a symbol of the Christmas celebration."
