The Ungroup Society... The tree on the fence has a special significance for me. Its a creation of Janet Moore and it shows as a people what we can do to make things beautiful even when we dont have a lot. Our yearly park decoration has been a nice get together of people in the community who take pride in the park that has been somewhat neglected at different times by us. It is named for Dr. Martin Luther King. A man of faith, I think at Christmas time things should look nice there. Because we have come out and done the best we can there are others interested in helping us make this park even bigger and brighter. All they ask is that we show the same determination and love we have in the past. For the place we live and for each other. Until this year we have not been able to light the 60 foot tree near the playscape at the park. This year with the help of the City of Waterbury, Neighborhood Housing Services of Waterbury, The Parks Dept and Uplift a Life committee and Kingdom 1st church as well as individuals who have donated lights so far we can for the first time relight the tree that our predecessors used to light for us. At holiday time that park named for a man of God is DARK during this season IMAGINE the joy it will bring to the children of the neighborhood to see lights in THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD, just like everyone elses. So they will know this season is for THEM too, that their is joy and love where THEY LIVE TOO. These are the lights we are using, they are at Home Depot and cost $22.99 for a string of nearly 100 feet. The more we have the brighter the tree, its that simple. ALSO ANY DECORATIONS ANYONE HAS WILL BE APPRECIATED.. you see what people like Janet can do with them.. lol .... I know its tough this time of year... But we appreciate you and anything you can do... EVEN if that means coming out to hang ONE BULB... We do these things together to the best of each of our ability... Thank you in advance and have a blessed day
