Light Up Lake Jackson A 2020 Holiday Celebration
LIGHT UP LAKE JACKSON
'Tis the Season! Hello Lake Jackson, 2020 has been a challenging year for our community. We have faced global, national and local issues that are unprecedented. I am so proud of this community and all that it has done to come together. Your resiliency makes me proud to be your mayor. I wish we could enter the holidays in person and enjoy all the festivities that make us merry yet out of an abundance of caution we can't. But that does not mean that we won't ring in the holidays! We present to you Light Up Lake Jackson! We will have Santa's Mailbox, selfie stations and even a house decorating contest. Learn more about all the activities we have planned in this interactive online magazine. I hope you will participate as it makes sense for you and Welcome Home for the Holidays! With all my very best wishes to you,
MAYOR GERALD ROZNOVSKY
