Lights going up in Newberry!

Village workers decorate Newberry with the traditional star and bells. The process takes several days, but it's well worth the effort. Thanks, guys. We appreciate your hard work and the beauty it brings to the village. These pictures show Matt Perry in the bucket with several other village employees directing traffic for the annual raising of the lights. Next are the lights on the poles; and then - It's Christmastime in Newberry!
