Thank you to the many donors who contributed the installation and lighting of the 2025 holiday tree.
As we shared in an earlier newsletter, budget cuts to NYC Parks have meant that the Garden Club has taken on all of the expenses for this yearly initiative. As a 501c3, the BHA is supporting the Garden Club by acting as a fiscal agent to collect donations for this project. To date, we have raised nearly $7,000 of the $9,000 goal. If you'd still like to make a contribution, you can do so here. Your earmarked donation to the BHA will be passed on to the Garden Club for this purpose.
And don't forget! The tree lighting will take place next Wednesday, December 17 at 5:30pm at the entrance to the Promenade by Montague Street. Enjoy music by Peter Clark, visit with Santa and afterwards, stroll down Montague Street for some early evening shopping.
