Members of IBEW Local 98 helped to fix the Bridesburg Christmas tree that was badly damaged by vandals.

The first official week of the 2022 holiday season in Bridesburg has caused a range of emotions. From euphoria Saturday night when their Christmas tree was lit to anger and frustration two days later when vandals cut those lights.

"I just think that it's nonsense," resident Ryan Wuest said. "I don't think it's necessary. I think it's just people out here looking for trouble. It's not the right thing. It ruined the Christmas spirit for all the kids around here."
