A Hometown Visit From Santa

NOTE: This entry was published on December 2, 2021 and the information may now be out of date.

A big red Fire Department truck delivered Santa to the waiting children at City Hall. Crowds gathered to watch the annual live-tree lighting under perfectly clear skies and just like that… the Christmas spirit had arrived in McLendon-Chisholm.

The City’s 3rd Annual Christmas Tree Lighting was a huge success. Citizen’s enjoyed community, hot cocoa and delicious cookies and shared the spirit of Christmas by donating unwrapped gifts for our Toy Drive. A special reading by Mayor Keith Short of T’was the Night Before Christmas was followed by the children visiting Santa and sharing their Christmas wishes.

Thank you to City staff, Council, volunteers and MC Fire Department for making this a wonderful night for all to remember.

Don’t forget to keep the Christmas spirit going this holiday season by visiting City Hall to donate an unwrapped gift for our Toy Drive and non-perishable food for our Food Drive.
