Tree lighting Dec. 3 and Christmas at Market Place Dec. 5 - are these firm?

I saw the city's early holiday plans and wanted to check before I mark my calendar. "It's a Wonderful Bryant" tree and trail lighting is listed for Thursday, Dec. 3, 5 to 7, and Christmas at Market Place for Saturday, Dec. 5, 5 to 8. Has anyone heard if the times and locations are actually settled, or is this still the "subject to change" version? Last year's tree lighting was at Mills Park, so I'm wondering if it stays there or moves.

As for last year, I thought the tribute tree was a lovely touch and the free pictures with Santa were a nice gesture, especially considering what we pay in property taxes... a little Santa photo is the least they can do. 😉 The line did get long and it was cold standing around, so a bit more organization would help. I'd also like to know whether the pets are welcome this time. Mine would love it and then embarrass me in front of the whole town.

What did the rest of you think? Worth going again, or should I just stay home with the dogs and a cup of cocoa?

haven't heard anything firm yet, last I saw it was still the tenative version. Mills Park was ok but yeah the line for santa was long and my kids were freezing by the time we got up there. Bring a blanket or hot choclate lol. Dec 3 is a thursday so we'll prob go right after practice, hoping the youth league doesnt schedule over it 🤞 Thanks!

blanket for sure, that wind comes across Mills Park and gets right thru ya. Remeber when all we had was the parade and nobody stood in line for nothin lol. Id trade the cocoa for some smoked sausage on a stick tho.

Youth league always books over everything so check with the coach early.
