Au Sable Forks — The Eighth Annual Christmas in the Forks, an old fashioned Town Yuletide Christmas will include the highlight of the day, the tree lighting ceremony at 6 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 1, at the Town of Black Brook Town Clock.
Many hands help to make Christmas in the Forks glorious each year. This year, we want to thank Matt and Shannon Stanley of Santa’s Workshop of Wilmington for helping to spread the Christmas Cheer. Santa’s friends from the North Pole will join the Holiday Party.
Also helping were Au Sable Forks downtown merchants, the Au Sable Forks Fire Department, the Au Sable Forks Free Library, Plattsburgh’s Media Central, Placid Productions, the Clock Project Committee, the Towns of Jay and Black Brook employees, the Au Sable Forks Revitalization and Beautification Committees, the Hollywood Theatre, Clinton and Essex County Sherriff’s Departments and the Tree Lighting Committee, chaired by Helen Wirt-Kennedy have all collaborated as sponsors to make Dec. 1 a magical night for children of all ages.
The Au Sable Forks Clock Park Christmas Tree will be donated this year by Robbie and Renee Baer from Jay. The Bair’s tree allows them to be an extra special part of this year’s celebration.
The Christmas in the Forks schedule for Dec. 1 is as follows:
2:30-3:30 p.m.: “Story Hour with Mrs. Claus,” The Au Sable Forks Free Library
3 p.m.: “Christmas in Song/Open House,” St. James Episcopal Church (Musicians from area churches are invited to come and share their musical talents in celebration of the Holy Season)

5:30 p.m.: Tree Lighting Ceremony at Town of Black Brook Clock Park, featuring visitors from Santa’s Workshop in North Pole New York, the Grinch, Cindy Lou Who, Snoopy, our lady Frosty Forks, Santa and Mrs. Claus and two very “Special Guests,” who will help light our tree this year.
