City of Chelsea Inaugural Christmas Tree Lighting
2025-12-06 17:30 - 19:30
The ASLHM will be a part of the City of Chelsea’s Inaugural Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony. We will be hosting “V-Mail for Santa” to teach kids about “Victory Mail” which was the most common method of sending letters to American servicemen overseas and for them to write home. During this activity, they get to write their own V-Mail to Santa Clause using a reproduction of original V-Mail letter. In additional to this, they will have the opportunity to write a letter to a current service member deployed overseas.
We look forward to meeting you for this fun-filled Christmas event!
