West-ish Ponce de Leon Ave, Decatur GA

Dave at Little Shop sends along this announcement…

We hope to see you on East Court Square Thursday at 7 p.m. for one of Decatur’s most wonderful annual traditions. It might be 60 degrees tomorrow night, but it’s still time for the Decatur Tree Lighting! Little Shop of Stories and other local businesses are kicking off the holiday season with carols from the 4/5 Academy, snacks, hot chocolate, snow, and a visit from Santa!!! This year, there will at least one exciting change — a customized light installation to replace the live tree. This tree-shaped installation will still sit on the roof above Little Shop of Stories and will be a more sustainable, workable option for future years.

Thanks to all the local businesses who helped make this possible this year: 17 Steps, Appolinsky & Associates, Café Alsace, Cakes & Ale, The Cooks Warehouse/Sherlock’s, Decatur Downtown Development Authority, Fabu Spa, Greene’s Fine Foods, Harry Norman Realtors, Homegrown, Leon’s Full Service, McCurdy & Candler, Mudhouse Design, My Own Bookkeeper, Private Bank of Decatur, Salon Red, Salon Red Kids, Squash Blossom, Starbucks,Steinbeck’s Ale House, Universal Joint, Verisail Partners, Vivid Boutique, Wild Oats & Billy Goats, J.M. Wilkerson Construction, and Worthmore Jewelers.
