175th Anniversary Community Events
Live Christmas Nativity
The PCF is a longtime sponsor of Peapack Reformed Church’s Live Christmas Nativity. The nativity scene is reenacted every year and includes appearances from the Holy family, the three wisemen, shepherds, and live animals. It is truly a site to see everyone from town come out and enjoy the story of Christmas and sing traditional Christmas hymns. This amazing event has become a Christmas tradition of Peapack-Gladstone! We hope it will be a part of your family tradition as well!
