Dear Yellow Springs Community and Partners,

As the lights continue to glow from this year’s Community Tree Lighting celebration, the Yellow Springs Chamber of Commerce extends heartfelt gratitude to everyone who came together to make this cherished event such a resounding success. The presence, enthusiasm, and unwavering support of our community turned the evening into a magical celebration of togetherness and holiday cheer.

This treasured tradition continues to be a shining example of what makes Yellow Springs so special. Each year, it grows—not just in attendance, but in the creativity, collaboration, and shared joy that breathe life into it. From the glowing smiles of children as the tree sparkled to the shared laughter of neighbors reconnecting, the Tree Lighting beautifully reflected the spirit of unity that defines our community.

The YS Chamber is especially grateful to the Village of Yellow Springs - including the office of the Village Manager, Mayor, Council, YSPD, and Public Works - local businesses, community organizations, and volunteers who poured their time, resources, and energy into making this event a success. These contributions not only brought vibrancy to the celebration but also reinforced the importance of supporting our local economy and fostering connections within our community family. Together, we showcased the strength and heart of Yellow Springs.

The Community Tree Lighting continues to inspire new ideas and opportunities for inclusion, determining that everyone feels a part of the joy and warmth that this season brings. Whether it’s finding creative ways to involve all of our neighbors or reimagining traditions to reflect our shared values, this event remains a beacon of what can be achieved when we come together.

As this spirit of unity and celebration carries into the new year, the YS Chamber encourages everyone to continue supporting one another, celebrating our unique community, and building on the traditions that make Yellow Springs such a remarkable place to live, work, shop, and play. Enjoy Holiday in the Springs!

Thank you for being part of this year’s Community Tree Lighting and for all that you do to keep the heart of Yellow Springs shining bright. Wishing you and your loved ones a joyous holiday season and a prosperous new year!

Happy Holidays!
