"We quit going to the Christmas tree lighting because of all of the rude drunk people who for many reasons take away from the true spirit of the ceremony."
I have attended 5 Christmas tree lighting ceremonies in the past 4 years here in The Villages. All of them have been fun. I did never see any rude drunk people. Everyone was having a great time.
The ceremonies are what you make them. Go there with a bad attitude and you will have a bad time. Go to the ceremony with a happy outlook and you will have a good time. A little advance planning helps, too. Do not go to the tree lighting ceremony at the last minute. You will not get a seat. Go early, get a seat, talk with friends or make a new friend.
