The neighbors and friends of the Centre Park Historic District helped to light the Christmas tree in Centre Park Saturday night. Santa Claus arrived for photos and to give out candy canes and wish everyone a happy holiday. The neighborhood provided hot chocolate and popcorn to help everyone celebrate. This year in addition to the multicolored lights and ornaments on the tree, large red bows on each lamppost and colorful laser lights shining into the treetops were added to boost the festive spirit to the park.
