Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony!

by Mike Van Houten / Nov 22, 2010

- Join the Mayor and Council in the countdown of the annual lighting of the holiday tree on November 23, tomorrow at 5 pm downtown at 10 north Virginia Street in front of City Hall. Billinghurst Middle School choir will sing carols prior to the lighting of the tree. 

This year's tree is a Giant Sequoia donated by John O'Brian of Reno.  It is approximately 55' tall and 4500 lbs.

Following the tree lighting, enjoy a preview of the Rink on the River until 9 p.m.  Bring two food items for the Evelyn Mount Community Outreach or a pair of mittens/gloves/socks for the Salvation Army and receive a free skate rental.  The Rink on the River opens for the winter season on Thanksgiving.

    Same hideous/cheap/dated decorations I see. Too bad we don't have the money to have someone with actual talent decorate the tree. /rant
