To the Editor:

A note of thanks to all of the following: Wareham Fire/first responders, parade participants, businesses that donated cookies and of course the volunteers, members and board of the Wareham Village Association.

A special “thank you” to the Wareham Police Department; their assistance with the change in parade route was outstanding. It truly does take a “village” to coordinate this effort.

This year's Christmas Parade and festivities in Besse Park were a great success because of everyone’s efforts. We hope everyone enjoyed this event, and look forward to planning next year’s events. If you would like to become a member of the Wareham Village Association, or a volunteer, please visit Warehamvillage.org, or our Facebook page.

Happy holidays!

Wareham Village Association
