SHARE Nov. 30 set for Holiday Tree Lighting

Cubs Charities will hold a daylong event for fans and Lakeview residents at Wrigley Field on Nov. 30, capped by the lighting of the Cubs holiday tree at 5 p.m. Outfielder David DeJesus and his family will help light the tree with local officials and community leaders. The event will include free hot chocolate and ice skating from 5:30 to 6:30 on the Rink at Wrigley.

Rink rental will apply, but those who donate an unwrapped toy at Wrigley Field between No. 25 and Nov. 29 and Nov. 30 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. will receive a pass for one free skating session at the Rink during the 2012-2013 skating season. Toys will be donated to actress Jennifer Hudson’s Julian D. King Gift Foundation.
