BACKGROUND:

CSA R-7A participates in Alamo’s Annual Tree Lighting Festival each year. The Community Foundation of Alamo is the sponsor of the 2016 event. CSA R-7A contributes the use of Andrew H. Young Park and provides funding to decorate the park with holiday lights. The event will take place on Sunday, December 4, 2016, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. The lights will be installed on or after November 15, 2016, and will remain up through the first week of January 2017. The Alamo Tree Lighting event is a collaborative effort coordinated by the Community Foundation of Alamo. The event was reviewed by the Alamo Municipal Advisory Council on May 3, 2016 when planning for the 2016-17 recreation budget of $1,500 was recommended for this event.
