Tree Lighting
The collaboration between The
Chamber of Commerce, The Bible
Church, and The Tabernacle of
Praise has transformed the annual

that strengthens community
bonds. This cherished tradition

holiday season together. This event
was held in Brehler Square when I
first started at the Chamber.

breaking crowds, showcasing the
community's enthusiasm and support for the
event.

2. Entries reached full capacity, highlighting
the high level of participation from local
organizations and businesses.

high, with residents actively joining in the
festivities and celebrating together.

Toyland Parade
The 99th annual Trek to the Nation's Christmas
Tree highlights the effective partnership among
the National Park Service, the Chamber of
Commerce, and the City of Sanger, enabling us
to maintain this beloved tradition. We feel
privileged by the trust placed in us by the
National Park Service to eliminate barriers and
blend our festivities, creating a more inclusive
