Caroling in the Heights

It’s the season to lift up your voice and sing for hope, a new creation, and a spirit of generosity!

The Newburgh Heights Association will be caroling in the neighborhood with members of
the Heights Congregational Church on Saturday, December 18th. We will meet at the church on the corner of Liberty and Courtney Streets between 3:30 and 4:00 PM and return after caroling for a pot luck supper in the church. There will be gifts presented to the younger children at that time.

Music, bells and candles will be provided. Bring food for the pot-luck and leave it at the church. We have it on good information that St. Nicholas will be joining us as we sing our way through the neighborhood.
