The Willow Springs Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the City of Willow Springs, is excited to announce the First Annual Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony, to be held on Saturday, December 6, 2025, at Earl Shipley Park (aka Caboose Park).
This fun new holiday tradition will take place following the Lighted Christmas Parade, bringing families, friends, and neighbors together for an evening filled with holiday cheer. The ceremony will feature the official lighting of the community Christmas tree, along with the iconic red caboose and arched park sign, creating a magical holiday backdrop for all attendees.
“We are thrilled to launch this new tradition alongside the City of Willow Springs,” said the Willow Springs Chamber of Commerce Executive Director, Kim McCormick. “The Christmas Tree Lighting will be a wonderful way to celebrate the season, bring our community together, and highlight the continued collaboration and growth happening in our town.”
Community members are invited to gather at the park after the parade for holiday music, photo opportunities, and a joyful kick-off to the Christmas season in Willow Springs.
