Organizers say thanks for making 19th event a hit

December 10, 2013 · 0 Comments

With our 19th year now behind us, I would like to thank everyone who helped make “A Main Street Christmas” happen in Schomberg.
Thanks to all the volunteers for their hard work on the day and throughout the year, the community groups and churches who participated, Main Street businesses and residents who allowed us to use their premises and of course especially to everyone who came and took part in the event.
Thanks also go to the King Township departments and staff. Thank you to everyone who participated in the Santa Claus Parade and of course thank you to all the farmers and their families who made the “Parade of Lights” as spectacular as ever.
Our event would also not be possible without the financial assistance received from our many sponsors, who not only donate funds but also equipment and services.
All the directors of Schomberg Village Association hope that this tradition will continue for many years.

The King Township Food Bank (KTFB) is facing an alarming rise in demand for its services, and the organization is calling on the community for urgent support to continue meeting the growing needs of local families. Since its founding in 2004, the food bank has been a vital resource for residents struggling to put food on the table. Despite King Township’s reputation as a wealthy area, food insecurity has long been a reality for many, particularly lower-income families, rural workers, and seniors on fixed incomes. This year, the need has skyrocketed, with the food bank reporting a 66% increase in individuals served since the beginning of 2023.
