GOSHEN—In the clear and warm twilight of Dec. 5, residents of the Village of Goshen began to gather at the park near Main Street for the annual tree lighting.

A table managed by Goshen Girl Scout Troop 636 was accepting socks for their annual sock drive for the Middletown homeless shelter. Girl Scout Megan Bowen said the troop gathers the donations then delivers them to the shelter. “It benefits them a lot because they don’t have a lot of warm clothes and the socks really warm them up,” she said.

Children seemed to be totally in the holiday spirit and having fun in the semi-darkness.
