Steamboat Springs Tree Lighting Starts Holiday Season Nov. 27

Start the season off brightly—by joining the community for its annual tree lighting! On November 27, 2009, the community will gather in front of the court house to light the trees, visit with Santa, and have a chance at winning "Downtown Dollars." Enjoy listening to—and singing with—the Emerald City Jewel Singers as they sing Christmas Carols; sip on hot chocolate to keep warm throughout the night; mingle with neighbors, friends, and family on the Routt County Courthouse lawn, awaiting the tree lighting. Last year, hundreds of participants came to support the annual event, including children who waited over a half-hour in line for Santa! So, if you’re looking for a new way to celebrate the holidays, join the community from 6-7pm, and kick off the season with a bang!
