The Municipality of the District of St. Mary’s is kicking off the festive season with a Sparkle and Skate Holiday celebration on Saturday, November 30. The event will include a tree lighting, caroling, a skate and social, and then fireworks at the Sherbrooke Village parking lot. The event runs from 5 to 7 p.m..

Fuller said everyone is welcome, noting there are plenty of holiday related events taking place in and around the area.
