We hope you are enjoying our coverage of annual holiday events, many longtime traditions among them. We get to as many as we can with our dedicated staff and our vital news contributors. And when no one can go, we are fortunate those involved in the events share pictures.

Like a family album or video captures holiday and other moments that help make a lifetime, a paper and, these days, its websites and social media presence, document the holiday and other moments that help make a town, generation by generation.

And sharing the announcements, like last week’s online one about the shift to Sunday, Dec. 4 for Wiscasset’s tree-lighting due to Saturday’s rainstorm, is an honor for us to help spread the word of these festivities that help brighten the season and, in some cases, like Woolwich’s tree lighting last weekend, aid causes like Bath Area Food Bank.

Again this year, our “Fall into the holidays” page at wiscassetnewspaper.com and boothbayregister.com tells what we know about what is happening and when. We keep updating it, so there is still time to check it out if you are looking for fun, meaning, or both this holiday season.

Week’s positive parting thought: Green Christmastimes are easier for getting around town or beyond!
