What a day! A HUGE thank you to Pender Student Council, Pender Betterment Group, Pender FFA, and Joe and Susan Strahm for decorating the park this afternoon! Another BIG thank you to everyone in the community that donated lights. This wouldn't have been possible without those donations. We had a great turnout for our lighting ceremony tonight. Thank you to everyone that made it!🎄
We hope this is a new tradition we can start for years to come!
