Nassau, Bahamas - The annual Christmas tree lighting took place in Fox Hill on Sunday 5th
December. Each year the Fox Hill parade grounds are lit from stem to
stern. This year Jan Davis of the Village Convenience Store and Davis
Enterprises and her team used a green and yellow motif to light the
tree, which is supplied by Ken Perigord Enterprises.
The tree lighting
is organized by the Fox Hill Festival Committee headed by Maurice Tynes
and a team of Fox Hillians. They name the tree each year after a
prominent Fox Hillian. This year the tree was named in honour of
Mildred Edgecombe, a civic activist and mother. Ms. Edgecombe (in hat
at right) had the honour of turning on the Christmas lights in the
centre of Fox Hill. A special treat for the residents was the
performance by the Doris Johnson Snr. High School Band under the
direction of Aaron Neely. Fred Mitchell Fox Hill MP is shown at the far
right of the photo.
