Antelope Valley Medical Center continues its Traditional Tree Lighting Ceremony
- Posted On:
WHAT: Antelope Valley Medical Center (AVMC) continues the holiday tradition of its annual tree lighting ceremony. AVMC brings this heartwarming event to pass along a little joy to our patients, staff and the entire AV community. The festivities will take place outside the main hospital entrance (behind the tree) and will include the telling of the AVMC Christmas tree story, a blessing, caroling from the Palmdale High School Chamber Singers, lighting of the tree, and refreshments.
The hospital encourages the community to attend and be part of the holiday festivities.
WHY: The AVMC Christmas tree is a live pine tree that was planted in front of the hospital more than 20 years ago, to honor the memory of a young patient. Today that tree reaches into the sky and becomes an even more beautiful focal point when it is decorated for the holidays. This celebratory tree lighting ceremony is held to honor the patients and community during the holiday season.
WHEN: Tuesday, December 5, 2023 at 5:00 PM – 6:00 PM
WHERE: Antelope Valley Medical Center – Main Hospital Entrance
1600 West Avenue J, Lancaster CA 93534
