Downtown East Greenwich was filled to brimming Saturday evening, Dec. 9, for the annual tree lighting at Town Hall. The event – sponsored by the town and the East Greenwich Chamber of Commerce – has grown in recent years, with the Extraordinary Rendition Band leading a parade to Town Hall, and everything from St. Luke’s choristers, two dance troupes (Providence Ballet and Konnect Dance Studio), a laser show and, of course, Santa.
On Sunday evening, a menorah was lit to celebrate Hanukkah.
