KEEPING SANTA GREEN

George Stryker, right, Ocean County Building & Grounds Landscape Supervisor. shows Freeholder Director Joseph H. Vicari the energy-friendly trimming lights which will be used on the official county tree this year. Vicari, said the decision to use the LED (light emitting diode) lights was an easy one as they last longer, shine better and, most important, use far less energy to do the same job. The lights will make their debut December 3 at 4:45 pm when the tree is officially lit on the west lawn of the County Administration Building in Toms River.
