The holiday season in Midtown Brandywine is such a special time and I wanted to take a moment to extend warm wishes to each and every one of you. It’s a time of joy, fellowship and gratitude. Neighbors come together and share their traditions, food, decorations and lights. Families and friends visit from all different places. We should feel incredibly fortunate to be a part of this community.
During this festive season, take some time to stroll through Wilmington’s diverse neighborhoods and look at the lights and holiday decorations. I encourage you all to embrace the spirit of giving and compassion. Learning about other traditions and celebrating together is an awesome way to spread the holiday cheer. May the season bring you happiness, peace and love. May your homes be filled with warmth and laughter and may all your dreams and aspirations find fulfillment in the coming year.
Another VERY SPECIAL THANKS to the generous neighbors and the following businesses who donated items for our Block Party raffle:
