BEFORE A CROWD of hundreds gathered downtown, Mayor Drew Brown joined with Dufferin Caledon MP David Tilson in welcoming Santa Claus to Orangeville for the official lighting of the town's Christmas tree. Part of the BIA sponsored Moonlight Magic, the event also featured a number of other activities ranging from horse drawn wagon rides on Broadway to a reading of "The Night Before Christmas" by David Nairn at the Opera House.
