Mundelein Mayor Steve Lentz and the board of trustees, in partnership with the Mundelein Park and Recreation District, invite everyone to Mundelein's Tree Lighting Ceremony from 5-7 p.m. Friday, Dec. 1, at Village Hall Plaza, 300 Plaza Circle, Mundelein.

Festivities begin with music, singing, and other holiday-themed entertainment. Santa Claus will help with the official countdown for the lighting of Mundelein's holiday tree, immediately followed by fireworks.

Musical performances include Jazz Spectrum, Fremont Singers, and the Carmel Catholic High School Choir.

Highlights include free children's train rides, Disney princesses Belle and Cinderella, a reading of "A Visit From St. Nicholas" by the Fremont Public Library, an ice sculpture demonstration and more.

The MPRD will have free goodies, while supplies last, and thanks Mundelein's Tie Mart - the Treat Tent sponsor - and all the volunteers and Mundelein businesses who help to ensure that this community builder is successful.
