Many shared in the fun and excitement of “Christmas on the Square” Thursday evening downtown Smithville.
The Community Chorus entertained and led the crowd in singing Christmas carols. Members of Boy Scout Troop #347 participated in a Flag-Raising Ceremony as Josh Isaac sang and the program concluded with a tree lighting ceremony outside the courthouse. As the crowd counted down, Chamber Director Suzanne Williams and Shan Burklow lit the tree.
On the first floor of the courthouse, county officials and their employees greeted visitors and served refreshments during the annual open house while at Justin Potter Library, children were treated to Christmas Carols and a Story Time, followed by a visit from Santa.
More holiday fun is scheduled for this weekend with the Smithville Christmas Parade set for Saturday at 1:00 p.m. and the Liberty Christmas Parade on Sunday at 2:00 p.m.
