In keeping with tradition, Mountain City is preparing to light up the town.
Loving Mountain City (LMC) invites you to string Christmas lights at your house in November for “Let’s Light Up the City” starting Thanksgiving weekend.
With decorations tended to before the holiday season, there's more time to enjoy Christmas lights with friends and family during the season.
Thanks to former Mayor LaVerne McClendon, mother of our current mayor, for creating the “Let’s Light Up The City” initiative during her term. Some of her “little green Christmas trees” are still in use, marking each house nominated for a Big Award.
“We love how bright Mountain City can be,” Amy Hilton, LMC Coordinator, said this week.
Word came recently from Fire Chief Kyle Taylor, “We will get the station decorated by Thanksgiving for Light the City.” When the fire station came to town, Chief Taylor planned to earn Yard of the Month. Such award does not exist. But, Loving Mountain City certainly does give recognition for Christmas décor.
