Galva residents will be participating in it’s first Galva Christmas Eve Jingle Thursday December, 24th, at 6 p.m.
The event encourages residents to come outside at 6 p.m. on Christmas Eve and ring bells (sleigh bells or any other bell will do) for two minutes to spread the Christmas Spirit and to help Santa fly his sleigh. Christmas Eve Jingle was recently founded by a Yorkshire Facebook group and Mary Beggs-Reid of Harrogate, Yorkshire, UK. The idea has turned into a global movement with over 350 thousand participants world-wide so far. “Maybe this will become a yearly tradition and you can say you were first when the history books talk of 2020 and that what happened on Christmas Eve united the whole world in spreading joy, hope and the Christmas spirit,” Beggs-Reid said.

UPPER THUMB In an effort to spread Christmas cheer and bring the community together, Chelsea Corbishley, family services coordinator at Head Start, had the idea to bring a Christmas Eve Jingle to Huron County.
After hearing about other areas participating in a collective scheduled bell ringing on Christmas Eve, Corbishley thought it would be the perfect way for the community to come together and help Santa fly his sleigh.
