Light Up Evergreen is annual holiday favorite
The traditional Light Up Evergreen tree lighting will be at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 23. That’s when Harmon Crane does the time-honored flipping of the switch to light up the tree high in the sky in Evergreen, atop of a crane. The ceremonial event launches the holiday season into full gear in Evergreen.
