Silver Lake 12th Night 2013 coverage

12th Night was celebrated in Silver Lake tonight just outside the Silver Lake Fire Department station.

Christmas trees were collected at the burn site for the last few weeks. Firefighters set the trees on fire with flares and supervised the burning.

Before and after, people could have some hot chocolate and cookies in the  firehouse. They also could get a look at some of the department’s equipment.

This year’s burn got a boost from the donation of over 20 trees from a seasonal tree stand in Paddock Lake, said village Trustee Sue Gerber.
