Bringing Christmas Back To Albion

01/06/2026

Hi Everyone!
You’ve probably noticed that all the Christmas lights are down and put away
Thank you, J Pahura and the guys for taking care of them for us. 🎄🎄

Joyce, Lori and I will be getting together to see what fun lighting we can buy that’ll stay up all year!!!⛄️⛄️

Some towns have their lights going sideways between light poles along the streets. It is beautiful!
So to be continued!!
We’ll keep you posted….

If you would like to donate some money towards this project?
Make checks out to “bringing Christmas back to Albion” and mail it to the Albion village office!

Thank you in advance for your help!!
Liz
PS We’ll do better with the Courthouse Christmas tree is next year!!🥸

It's time to get your jingle on at Dubby's Tailgate after the Charles W. Howard Hometown Parade, where you'll hang with 🎅 Santa and the Mrs. and "take your own photo", a gift, and some face time with the head elf. The parade judges will announce the WINNERS OF THE Charles W Howard Hometown Parade and dole out prizes. And, this year, we're adding the "Kids Choice Award" Kids cast their vote while seeing Santa! 🎅 Charles W. Howard Hometown Parade Dubby's Tailgate Charles W Howard Hometown Parade

Did you know that Charles Howard (pictured below) began America's very first Santa Claus School in Albion, NY (Orleans County) in 1937. Howard taught over 5,000 professional department store Santas how to be cheerful, kind and "jolly." He died in 1966 and the school moved to Michigan. Howard was the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade Santa for nearly 20 years!
