“Jingle and Glow” brought holiday magic to Main Street
From the Jingle and Glow Committee, Thelma Rogers Genealogical Historical Society of Wellsville
With the very first Jingle & Glow now taken down for the season, the committee wants to thank the entire community for participating in its success and enjoying the festive, illuminated, holiday display. The committee wrote a poem to its sponsors, donors and volunteers who came together to make this first year display a reality.
Beneath the lights that twinkled bright,
Our town felt magic in the night.
With every smile, each gift, each show,
You helped the spirit of Wellsville grow.
Through Jingle & Glow, our hearts could see,
The joy of shared community.
And as the season’s stories unfold, you’ve helped keep our history gold.
Thank you for lighting the way, for yesterday, tomorrow, and today.
The TRGHS extends heartfelt thanks to all sponsors, partners, and volunteers who made this inaugural year of Jingle & Glow such a success.
