Caroling and tree-lighting set for Thanksgiving weekend

TRUSSVILLE, AL – The Trussville Area Chamber of Commerce will host its fifth annual  Community Caroling & Tree Lighting Ceremony on Sunday, Nov. 26, from 4:30 until 6 p.m., on The Mall in Trussville. The presenting sponsor for the event is First Baptist Church Trussville. 

The seasonal combination of musical entertainment, caroling, kids’ activities and pictures with  Santa will culminate with Mayor Buddy Choat’s signal to light the city’s Christmas tree around 5:45 p.m. As the tree is lit, a chorus of jingle bells will ring, led by none other than Santa Claus himself. 

The Community Caroling & Tree Lighting is a community effort coordinated by the Trussville  Chamber. Major contributors include the City of Trussville and First Baptist Church Trussville.  Other sponsors include America’s First Federal Credit Union, The Trussville Tribune, Trinity  Contractors, Trussville Gas & Water and Bryant Bank. 

Booth space is made available to chamber members only, free of charge. But in lieu of a  participation fee, each vendor is expected to provide giveaways and/or a free kids’ activity. For details, call the chamber office. 

The Trussville Historical Society’s Christmas Memory Bench at the foot of the Christmas tree will again serve as a photo-op spot for family and friends throughout the holiday season.
