Cold temperatures,
Christmas music, Santa and a million colored lights set
helped to set the mood for the annual "Christmas in the
Park" lighting ceremony Friday night. Several hundred
visitors were on hand as Congressman Robert Aderholt led the
traditional countdown to the lighting. Arab Chamber
Junior Ambassadors assisted with throwing the switches to
light the park.
In addition
to the light display, visitors were able to tour all of the
Arab Historical Complex buildings and children of all ages
shared their Christmas wish list with jolly old Saint
Nicholas.
The lights
will be open each night until 10 pm through December 31.
The historical complex will be open weekends with special
events planned.
