We will proudly celebrate this year’s honoree - the Auxiliary of Newton Medical Center. The Auxiliary is celebrating 90 years of service to Newton Medical Center this year, and we thank the Auxiliary for their many contributions tothe hospital and our community. 

A community reception will feature a special visit from Santa, light refreshments and holiday treats! Our festive tree lighting ceremony will illuminate the hospital campus with sparkling lights, bringing the holiday spirit to life.

It's a perfect opportunity for families and friends to come together and share in the warmth of the season. Following the tree lighting, a spectacular fireworks display will light up the night sky.

A private reception will be held immediately after the fireworks for all Festival of Lights sponsors.
