Tarentum Borough Christmas/Holiday Tree

Following Tarentum's Holiday Parade on December 3, a number of residents gathered at the corner of East Sixth Avenue and Corbet Street to decorate the Borough Christmas/Holiday Tree with ornaments donated by local businesses. It was a smaller group than had watched the parade earlier that afternoon, but everyone was able to get along well without quibbling about the name of the tree.

Bill Tillman brought song sheets to lead the group in singing. When we finished singing the secular holiday carols on the sheets, a number of us began singing traditional religious Christmas carols from memory.
