A citizens group that has been reviving Goffe Street Park brought in the holiday scene with light — and warmth.
The group, the Friends of Goffe Street Park, held its annual tree lighting ceremony in the park Sunday evening.
Then the group decamped across the street for an indoor holiday bazaar.
The group gave away 125 coats, plus toys and food boxes for the needy.
Santa put in an appearance and hung around for some quality time with the kids.
He also posed with some of the park group’s and neighborhood’s movers and shakers, including from left, community organizer Abby Feldman, Mrs. Claus (aka Jill Marks, who revived the park friends group and organizes its events), State Rep. Al Paolillo, Jr, State Rep. Toni Walker, top neighborhood cop Lt. Manmeet Colon, and Alder Ron Hurt.
