The 29th Annual Chelsea Hometown Holiday “Tree Lighting Ceremony” will be held 6 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 4 at Pierce Park on Main Street.

Santa will arrive on the Chelsea Area Fire Authority ladder truck at 6 p.m. and after a few words from the Chelsea Rotary Club and the Chelsea Area Chamber of Commerce, the 2015 Chelsea Fair Queen Alissa Trinkle, will light the tree.

Sounds of the holiday season will be performed by members of the Chelsea High School Choir conducted by Steve Hinz.

“Having the Rotary as a part of the tradition of Chelsea’s Hometown Holidays celebration, really helps make it a community event,” said Amythyst Romero, events coordinator for the Chelsea Area Chamber of Commerce. “The Tree Lighting Ceremony would not be possible without their support and volunteer efforts.”

The entire Hometown Holiday weekend is packed with fun family events organized by a dedicated volunteer committee.
