Seven members of the Aldergrove Rotary Club turned out in the early hours of Sunday (Dec. 1) to deck the downtown core with festive Christmas light decoration as temperatures hovered around freezing.
Fraser Highway鈥檚 annual light-up display 鈥渋s one of the club鈥檚 contributions to the community鈥檚 Christmas festivities,鈥� explained club communications director Janet Ingram.
鈥淏ut it couldn鈥檛 happen without the help of 91原创 Township firefighters and Asplundh equipment and staff 鈥� who put the lights in place.鈥�
This year, Township firefighters acted as traffic control while the light fixtures were installed amongst the downtown.
Deputy fire chief Bruce Ferguson, a past Rotary president and current club member, was there to appreciate the work.
Walter Harder of Asplundh hoisted large candy-cane light fixtures with the help of club secretary George Bryce, and assistance from membership director Howie Vickberg.
This year, lights have been converted from incandescent to environmentally-friendly LED bulbs.
