The 2nd Annual Kids Tree Lighting took place Friday night, Dec. 7. Children joyously gathered singing Christmas carols and then became excited at their first sighting of Santa and Mrs. Claus. The Town Hall kids and Idyllwild SAFE Program sponsored the dedication to the children of Idyllwild in memory of Pam Sundling.
