The Roscommon Christmas Lights Committee wish to thank all those businesses who have contributed to the lights so generously to date. Without these donations the town would not be able to look so wonderful at Christmas time.
The committee would also like to send a gentle reminder to all businesses who haven’t already contributed to the 2024 Christmas Lights to do so as soon as possible.
Christmas is a busy time and many business owners intended to make a contribution but put it on the long finger or didn’t receive a reminder. It isn’t too late and donations are still being gratefully accepted.
The committee would like to sincerely thank all the volunteers who gave willingly of their time and worked tirelessly to repair and erect the 2024 Christmas lights display around the town.
The Christmas lights truly transform our town for the festive season, however, as everyone understands, there is a significant cost attached. The committee are asking all businesses to make a small contribution for the greater good of our town and county. If everyone gives a little, we will all benefit.
The committee suggest €150 per business (that’s less than €3 a week spread over a year, which equates to just one latte per week!) but will gratefully accept any donation.
