District 1 Council Member Michelle Watkins invites the community to join her on Sunday, Dec. 8, from 5-7 p.m., at Johnson Legacy Center and Legacy Park, 6000 Cecil Fain Drive, NW. The free event will feature visits with Santa Claus, free hot chocolate and live performances by saxophonist Alex D. Banks and the Jemison High School Band and Choir. The evening will culminate with a tree-lighting ceremony.

Huntsville Parks & Recreation will collect new or gently used coats, hats and gloves as part of their ongoing Cozy Care Holiday Drive.

“I’m excited to kick off this new holiday tradition,” Watkins said. “This event is open to everyone in Huntsville, no matter which district you call home. It’s a chance for our entire community to come together, celebrate the season and create lasting memories.”
