Dear Jazz,

As the holiday season unfolds, I am filled with a sense of joy that I wish to share with every one of you, the heart of our wonderful community. December is not just a month; it is a magical time that brings us closer, kindling the spirit of giving and togetherness. Whether it's through sharing gifts, spending time with our families, or reaching out to our neighbors, this season reminds us of the importance of connection and community. As your Mayor, I am continually inspired by how all of you contribute to making Plainfield a place where warmth and joy are not just seasonal but a part of our daily fabric.

This holiday season, let's embrace these feelings of goodwill and extend them to those around us. It's a time to gather with our loved ones, share the season's joy, and make lasting memories. In this spirit, our city has planned a series of festive events that are sure to bring smiles and cheer to everyone. From our annual tree lighting service to celebrating the principles of Kwanzaa at our yearly program, there is something for residents of all ages to enjoy. I strongly encourage you to participate in these community events, as they are an excellent opportunity to meet your neighbors and experience the unique charm of Plainfield during the holidays.

Lastly, I urge you to stay informed about these and other city events by subscribing to our Plainfield Newsletter. It's not just for the holiday season but is a valuable resource throughout the year, keeping you updated with all the happenings and opportunities within our city. The newsletter is a great way to stay connected and engaged with the community, ensuring you are aware of all of the fun and heartwarming events we have planned. So, as we move through this festive season and into the new year, let's continue to foster the spirit of community that makes Plainfield such a special place to call home.

Warmest holiday wishes,
