Downtown Lighting this Friday
Downtown Lee’s Summit Main Street will host the Mayor’s Holiday Tree Lighting Ceremony on Friday, November 20, 2009, at 6:30 pm in Howard Station Park at the corner of Third and SE Main. The event is sponsored by Bank of Lee’s Summit.
The Mayor will light the downtown with over 100,000 SPARKLING lights. Free hot chocolate and cookies, musical performances and a visit from Santa, Mrs. Claus and his elves will get you in the holiday spirit! Bring your camera and snap photos with Santa, then stay awhile and visit businesses open late until 9 pm.
New this year is the Snowball Drop, where 2,000 white ping pong balls will fall from the sky. Each snowball will list a great discount at a participating downtown store. The discounts may be used throughout the weekend, November 20-22.
Visitors are encouraged to find on-street parking, or to park in the parking garage located at the corner of 2nd and Green by City Hall.
