Lighting of The Doves 2009 in The Woodlands - Saturday!!


Two Christmas holiday events are scheduled for Saturday, November 21, 2009 - the traditional Lighting of the Doves and IWOW, an acronym for Winter on the Waterway.

These two events are scheduled from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Town Green Park to kick-off the holidays in The Woodlands. Featured will be the arrival of Santa Claus, two snow play areas, fireworks, inflatables holiday crafts, food and entertainment.

Needfire will provide the spotlight entertainment. This musical group consists of Scottish-American lads who play traditional Celtic instruments with an American flavor. Their electric guitars will give a boost of high energy to the festival with their famous "flaming fiddle".

“The entertainment lineup is amazing this year. We will have terrific groups from The Woodlands area and the Greater Houston area,” said Peg Welbes, the entertainment consultant for iWOW and Lighting of the Doves.

Other notable acts include: Houston Choral Showcase, features a unique holiday concert mix of choral presentation, showy costumes and fun choreography; The McTeggart Irish Dancers, a lively group of Celtic dancers; Boni’s Dance and Performing Arts Studio, featuring the Sugar Plum Fairy, Clara and the Toys; and Cuadro La Tempestad Flamenco, a group with the sound of rhythmic clapping, castanets and classical guitar.

With a little something for everyone, the entire family is sure to enjoy the variety offered by the Lighting of the Doves and iWOW festival.
