Lighting of the Greens
The holiday lighting of Chagrin Falls is one of the most magical transformations the Jaycees bring to life each year. Hundreds of volunteer hours go into stringing thousands of lights, draping garland, and adorning trees throughout the Village, turning Chagrin Falls into a winter wonderland. Each year, residents gather in Triangle Park for the beloved lighting of the grand holiday tree, marking the official start of the season.
Over 964 volunteer hours and 190 Jaycee members are utilized in the prep work, setup and teardown of the holiday lighting festivities in the Chagrin Falls village.
Watch the video to see the magic that goes into this beloved annual tradition.
