COMMUNITY PRIDE
HOLIDAY LIGHTS AND DELIGHTS Mission
The City of Mission kicked off the holiday season with the Mayor ’s Annual Tree Lighting. This two-day celebration— Holiday Lights and Delights— was held on Friday, Nov. 19, and Saturday, Nov. 20, and included choir performances, moon jumps, life-sized Christmas cards for selfies, live music, games, food and craft vendors, toy raffles, and plenty of familyfriendly entertainment. Thousands of lights illuminated Leo Peña Placita Park. “ The holiday season is so special because it is a time when our community comes together with friends and family to celebrate peace, love, and joy,” Mayor O’Caña said. “After having to host a virtual Mayor’s Tree Lighting in 2020, we were so excited to be back in person in 2021. The tree lighting was a magical night that included wonderful entertainment by our local school districts and a special visit from Santa Claus.”
