‘Tis the Season

Seriously, is there anything prettier than downtown Clayton at Christmas? Last Saturday’s traditional Tree Lighting seemed to draw the biggest crowd in recent memory. Things kicked off with Christmas Carols at the Gazebo by MDES chorus before Santa rolled up with lights and siren in the vintage 1971 police car. Mayor Howard Geller then led the parade down Main Street to the city’s tree where Santa flipped the switch, and the Holidays in Clayton officially began.
