Default Lake Sumter Tree lighting

Anybody know the time of the tree lighting itself. I know the activities take place between 4-9 but was wondering what time the switch was flipped

We're here now (4:30) and they announced tree lighting is at 8:00 so plenty of time to get here

My dog will only go if they have 'Classical' music and are serving Mango Margaritas. When he found out he probably would not get access to the 'Big Christmas Tree' to urinate on he adamantly refused to go.

Call your Village salesperson.
I believe they are allowed to tell you what time.

We went to a tree lighting at Brownwood once. They gave us small candles to hold. The actual lighting took place after the candle wax had melted all over our hands.

Were you not given an instruction sheet telling you; how to hold the candle/ when to light the candle?

There was a time, maybe 15 yrs ago, when Christmas Tree Lighting was wonderful. We used to go to Spanish Springs to see their tree, fun time. When TV grew to be so big we stopped going.
