Clip clop, here comes Christmas
The Holiday Season officially rolled into town Saturday when the CBCA-sponsored carriage rides returned for the annual Tree Lighting celebration in The Grove. By late afternoon, hundreds of kids and parents were already waiting for their free ride in a line that snaked through the park and up Center St. The chorus from Mt. Diablo Elementary brought some lively holiday music to the Gazebo before Santa arrived to flip the switch on the gazebo tree. Clayton Community Church and the CBCA hosted hot cider and donuts By next year, the newly planted tree at the west end of Main St., should be tall enough to reclaim the official town tree title and it’s expected that Santa will once again lead the townsfolk down Main Street for the tree lighting ceremony.
