"It was wonderful to see so many young families, shop owners and  established members of the Georgetown community," said resident Colleen Girouard.  "A great turnout on a chilly evening to kick off the Christmas Season."

Following the tree lighting and caroling, neighbors made their way home, warmed by the welcome of brightly lit shops and restaurants in the Wisconsin Avenue neighborhood.
