Christmas Tree Lighting

Santa officially kicked off the holiday season in the Grand Valley Saturday by lighting the Christmas Tree and light displays in downtown Grand Junction.

We don't have to light Grand Junction's Christmas tree in order to have Christmas, but I'm glad we do it.

Believe it or not, it's about time for Santa to get to Grand Junction and kick off the holiday shopping season.

Warm days, cold nights. Sounds like we need a way to stay warm when we're outdoors. Here are five that will warm you to the bone.

The Tree Lighting in downtown Grand Junction may have seemed to be extremely early - in relation to Thanksgiving - but don't tell that to the hundreds of folks who showed up to enjoy a fantastic show by the Tonettes, and watch Santa light the tree.

Even though Thanksgiving is still two weeks away, the Christmas season kicks off this weekend in Downtown Grand Junction, and that’s just one of many events scheduled for this weekend.
