We’ll put the best of the photos together in a video and share it with the whole community near and far in time for Christmas.
Charlie Ferry, Chairperson of the Chamber, says, “It’s been a really tough year. But through everything we’ve been really proud of how our community has responded. Individuals, groups and businesses have all come together to support each other and our community spirit is stronger than ever. Our Festival of Light is a celebration of our community spirit and a reminder that brighter days are coming.”
The Chamber switched on the Christmas Lights in the towns on Saturday 14 November with a beautiful display all the way from McClays Corner to Donegal Street. The socially distanced event was filmed, with some extra help from school children from across the towns counting down to the switch on. You can find the video on our Facebook page. We have to say thank you to the whole team of people involved in putting the lights up and arranging the switch on, especially John Griffin from Ballybofey Florist.
