OAK CREEK, WI — The holiday spirit officially comes to Oak Creek on the evening of Sunday, Nov. 26 as civic leaders and well-wishers gather for the city's annual community tree-lighting ceremony.

The event will be held at the Oak Creek Community Center, 8580 S. Howell Ave. from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. The event will be held in the Community Center's courtyard. Santa is scheduled to arrive at 5:15 p.m. on a fire truck that will pull up to the community center.
