WELLINGTON:<\/strong> The year 2025 kicked off with revelers enjoying festivities, food, and music at many local venues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two of those venues that we stopped by were at the Wellington Fletchers Lake Station House and the LWF Hall in Fall River.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both had events and music that started early in the afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The LWF Hall also had the Lions wing night moved up to be a Lions wing day for those stopping by there, instead of its traditional Thursday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Wellington, Paul Henman and friends got things started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a full slate of tasty food available, and the crowd was starting to arrive as we had to head out to the LWF Hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A good afternoon of music was ahead with Sam Moon and others on the lineup for entertainment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a couple of photos we could get before going to the next event:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the LWF Hall, when we stopped by Halifax Mayor Andy Fillmore was visiting with Councillor Cathy Deagle Gammon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The music by Jeff Bonang had just started with Lion Kirk Stephen doing the cooking having the fryers going full tilt to serve those ordering wings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the bar was getting busy as well, and the crowd started to pick up by about 230\/3 pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few pics from the LWF Hall New Year\u2019s Day Levee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
