There was a new tree and location for the annual tree lighting ceremony Nov. 30. A 25-foot spruce on the grounds of St. Joseph parish twinkled with lights after an enthusiastic count-down from the crowd. After the tree was lit, caroling ensued while Santa gave hugs to young and old.
Cheri Meyer of St. Joseph takes a selfie with her grandchildren, Irvin Cheney, 4, (left) and his brother Owen, 7, also of St. Joseph. Immediately following the Nov. 30 tree lighting ceremony many couples and families posed for photos together in front of the decked-out tree.
