Holiday on Main Starts in Middletown

Middletown kicked off the 30th edition of the Holiday on Main celebration with several tree lightings.

The tradition includes carriage rides, popcorn, and hot chocolate that lead up to the lighting of the more than 50-foot-tall tree on the South Green.

Al Santostefano has chaired Holiday on Main since the event started.“It’s all free. We get all of the businesses that sponsor all of the events that we do: the horse and carriage rides and the fun train and all of the businesses support it so we’re able to do it for free and not charge.”

Diane Gervais owns Amato's Toy and Hobby and has been involved with the event since the start as well. She said it shows the strength of the community spirit.

“It’s exciting. It’s different. It’s not cookie-cutter. There’s something different here. It’s a lot of fun," Gervais said.
