Part of Main closed

At this hour, part of Walhalla’s Main Street is closed to traffic to allow workers to put up Christmas lights on one of the city’s oldest trees.  With the help of the fire department’s ladder truck, crews are lighting a tall deodora cedar in front of Arby’s.  Sherrie Edwards, wife of Mayor Danny Edwards, says some extra funding allows for the tree lighting, a project facilitated by tree professional Mike Stancil with the help of the fire department.
