One of the entries said: “Merry WAPA Christmas” and its lights and music went out as it neared the Christiansted boardwalk, to the delight of the nearly two thousand people who attended the event Saturday evening.

It was a festive, safe, and family-oriented event. Commissioner Velinor encouraged families to come out and enjoy festivities this Holiday Season.
