PHOTOS, VIDEO: Westwood Celebrates the Holidays with Annual Tree Lighting

The yearly celebration welcomed families, officials and an appearance by the big man in red himself.

The holidays officially arrived in Westwood on Sunday, when families and town officials gathered at the front of Westwood Town Hall to celebrate the season with the town's annual tree-lighting event.  Parents and children enjoyed hot drinks and warm cookies provided by Roche Bros., and enjoyed a variety of holiday tunes with a performance by the Westwood High School band and chorus.  But after illuminating the trees, children chased a Westwood fire engine carrying Santa Clause, who made a special appearance on Sunday.
