The two pups were many of the residents — both of the four- and two-legged kind — who attended Wednesday’s tree-lighting ceremony at Lake Sumter Landing, the second of three to take place this week. “We always have a big crowd at Lake Sumter Landing who wants to help us come out and light the tree,” said Nadia Skertich-Lester, special events manager for The Villages Entertainment and Special Events Department. On Wednesday, the YesterYear Kart Club and the Sumter County Sheriff’s Office had the opportunity to collect donations for SCSO’s Kids, Cops and Christmas charity effort. The Ambers made a video to send to their 2-year-old grandson, Jackson, all the way to Lake Villa, Illinois. “They’re coming to visit after Christmas, but we won’t get to spend Christmas Day with them,” Gloria said.
