Christmas Memorial Tree Lighting Ceremony

Congratulations to the Sax Quartet who performed last night, Dec. 13th at the K-town corner. The Sax Quartet made up of: Alicia Silliker, Kelsey Champion, Mairead Murphy, and Kathleen Murphy bared the chilly temperatures, freezing sax keys, and limited lighting to perform Christmas carols for the crowd that attended. Well done ladies.
