I have received several calls regarding the tree that was lit at Village Square on Nov. 26 during the Winter Tree Lighting Festival. It seems that there is a misunderstanding about what the tree is being called. Since the Chamber and the BID named the event the Winter Tree Lighting Festival, people think we are calling the tree a "winter tree." That is not the case. We just tried to think of a name for the event, and since we combined the winter festival with the tree lighting ceremony, we came up with "Winter Tree Lighting Festival." We hope this clears things up, and that everyone enjoys the Christmas tree that will be lit through the holiday season.
