Getting Ready For Christmas


Last week Village Street Department employees put up the holiday banners up and down Main Street. This past Monday they went and cut down the Village Community tree and put it up in front of the Gazebo in the 4th St. Square.

As noted in our report of the Village Council meeting below the tree was a community effort spearheaded by the Wellsville Area Chamber of Commerce and a slew of others. The tree pictured here is one of 54 offered to the Village according to Chamber President Randy Allmon. The one selected was donated by Gary Lyle.

Next Wednesday, December 1, students from Wellsville High School will assist in decorating the tree starting at 3:30 PM. As mentioned in an earlier news article the Chamber has purchased new decorations to adorn the tree along with the memorial Christmas tree bulbs they sold.

Light-up night will be Saturday evening, December 4, starting at 6 PM. Students from Garfield Elementary & Daw Middle School will be on hand singing Christmas carols. A photographer will be on hand taking free pictures with Santa. Allmon said folks are welcome to bring their pets for pictures with Santa too.

The annual Chamber sponsored Christmas Parade is scheduled for Saturday, December 11. It is to begin at 6 PM at the old Sky Bank in the 1200 block of Main. The parade will come up Main to the 4th Street Square. Santa will be on hand to hear Christmas wishes at the Gazebo following the parade. For more information contact Parade Chairwoman Vickie McCombs at 330-532-4149.

Yes sir, it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...
