The festive lights of the Christmas tree in Roxby Square turned on Monday afternoon, to mark the start of the holiday season.
Uptown Rutland Business Association (URBA) organizes the light up, which usually is a large annual event filled with snacks, hot chocolate, Christmas carols sung by students of Rutland Secondary School and even a scrimmage with the 91大黄鸭 Chiefs.
However, this year due to the on-going pandemic the light-up was just a solo effort by Karen Beaubier, URBA鈥檚 executive director.
Families are encouraged to come down to Roxby Square off Highway 33, with a hot chocolate, and enjoy the tree in all its glory all while social distancing.
The tree stays lit for the month of December.
