"Hopefully, this will get everyone in the holiday spirit," Coles added. "This is one of those things where there isn't any negative to it. It is good for the families. The COVID-19 Pandemic has been really hard on everyone and it will be good to spread some holiday cheer."

A tree lighting will take place at 4:45 p.m. Saturday. Treats, hot chocolate, a sing-along, goodie bags, and a movie will all be part of the event. Masks are required, Chief Coles said because of the pandemic.
