Kids happily singing Christmas carols at last year’s tree lighting in Cedar Springs.

If you are looking for a fun, family-friendly Christmas tradition, join Santa Claus and the city of Cedar Springs as they light the city Christmas tree Friday, December 4, during their “Mingle with Kris Kringle” event.
Santa and his favorite elf will arrive in the antique fire truck, at 6 p.m. at the corner of Main and Ash, and then he and the Red Flannel Queen will light the tree. Afterward,  Santa will head to the Cedar Springs United Methodist Church, on the corner of Main and Church Street, where he will hear the wishes of all the boys and girls. But instead of waiting in line for a long time, the kids will be able to sign in, and then go and enjoy several activities while they wait for their name to be called. The Post and many other businesses will be on hand to provide the activities. We hope to see you there!
