Creche and Christmas tree Set up

Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony .

The 12 foot artificial pre-lit Christmas tree was set up by Steve Radigan and Lou Zenzen. A major challenge as the original tree stand could not be located and a stand had to be fabricated by Steve and Gary Dorighi. Once done it had to be tweaked to make it work somewhat well, the tree still had to be stabilized by tying it to the hand railings with coated wire rope. The pre-lit lights did not work very well and strands of clear lights had to be wrapped around the tree. Two days and 10 hours later it was up and working.

Creche Set Up

Putting up the Nativity scene went rather smoothly. We were granted access to the storage units during school hours and we quietly remove the stable pieces, statues and backdrop cloth within a couple of hours. Thanks to Steve Radigan, Tom Leen Ashley Weerpass, Ron Brazil and Lou Zenzen it went quickly.

Thanks to all and Happy New Year
