Sunset Park BID hosts annual tree lighting outside OLPH
Oh Christmas tree!
For the 15th year, the Sunset Park Business Improvement District (BID) held its Christmas Tree Lighting outside Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church (OLPH), on the corner of 60th Street and Fifth Avenue. On Thursday, December 4, families, BID members, local businesses and schools gathered outside despite the chilly evening to spread holiday cheer in the community.
“It went really well,” said Executive Director of the Sunset BID Renée Giordano. “We had a good number of community groups like we usually do. The Brooklyn Chinese American Association, P.S. 105, the Saint Agatha Youth Chorus, the OLPH Choir and Twirlers performed as well as the Regina Opera. There were soloists too. We had a nice mix of all different types of music.”
