Winter Walkabout and Tree Lighting!

On Saturday, December 1, 2018, Bedford will be holding its third Winter Walkabout in conjunction with our annual Tree Lighting celebration.  Once again, the Town will be offering a flurry of activities to encourage everyone to stroll, shop, savor, and socialize to kick off the winter season.  Bedford Recreation, Economic Development, and Healthy Bedford in collaboration with the Bedford Chamber of Commerce invite you to walk our Town Center, enjoy the lights, and shop and dine locally while celebrating the arrival of winter in Bedford.
