Powering the holiday season
With the end of the 2025 calendar comes the end of the holiday season, a time filled with family, community and joy.
Throughout the year, and throughout the holidays, it’s the moments along the way — big and small — that fuel our passion to deliver safe and reliable power.
This holiday season has been a busy one for us in our communities, and we are grateful to have been able to take part in a few big events that bring joy and warmth to us all.
Lighting up the holiday in Allentown
There are few symbols more iconic during the season than the holiday tree. Our team had a blast taking part in downtown Allentown’s annual tree lighting ceremony in early December. From driving into Allentown’s ArtsPark in our decorated bucket truck to turning on the tree with the wave of a candy cane wand, the event featured everything that makes this time of year special.
Oh, and we forgot to mention Santa! We were even able to pull the big man in red away from his duties at the North Pole to take part in the festivities.
Setting the tree in Lancaster
You can’t light a tree if there isn’t a tree to light! That’s where we helped in Lancaster. To prepare the city for its lighting ceremony, our crews arrived at a home in nearby Millersville to pick up the annual holiday tree. The tree was then delivered to Penn Square in downtown Lancaster, where our crews used their equipment to safely set the tree for all to enjoy.
The gift of giving in Williamsport
Most recently, a team of PPL Electric volunteers around Williamsport headed to the local Salvation Army as part of its Red Kettle Campaign. Our volunteers helped local families pick out gifts for their loved ones and helped deliver the gifts and food items to residents’ vehicles and homes.
These are events we take part in every year to help make our communities a little brighter during the holiday season. And while we always look forward to helping lend a hand this time of year, we also look forward to helping power the little moments of magic that happen throughout the year.
PPL Electric Utilities wishes you all a safe and joyous end to your holiday season, and we look forward to delivering for you in 2026.
