“This Saturday evening, Santa Claus will arrive in the Borough of Perkasie atop a borough electric truck to light the town's Christmas tree and, in doing so, continue a tradition over 100 years old. Since 1909, residents of this small borough in upper Bucks County have gathered together to participate in the community tree lighting ceremony recognized as the oldest tree lighting in the Nation. While a lot has changed over the generations, community leaders, elected officials, and local residents have kept this annual event's unique, small-town charm and enshrined it as a timeless Christmas ritual. Now in its 108th year, this official start to the holiday season continues to serve not only as a source of pride for the people of Perkasie, but also an example of what makes the communities across my district special and an honor to represent. I am proud to recognize Perkasie's 108th community Christmas tree lighting and join in the celebration of this enduring holiday tradition. ____________________”
