Lighting Of The Lawn

Wow... what an amazing night for the University of Virginia. With the annual Lighting of the Lawn celebrations hundreds of students gathered together in anticipation of the countdown for the grand illumination of the academical village! Students and local Charlottesville residents came to UVa looking for some extra holiday spirit and entertainment. After several group of singers performed and the ever so popular poem was read "all the Hoos down in Hooville" were ready for their school to be lit and festive for the holiday ahead! 


Lawn residents hosted gatherings for a variety of school organizations and hot chocolate and s'mores were offered for all!
