The Lucknow Sentinel Team Garit Reid Published Weekly - 619 Campbell Street, Lucknow f UN MEDIA A Quebecor Media Company Publisher, Advertising Manager: Pat Livingston lucksentads@bowesnet.com Editor: Garit Reid lucksented@bowesnet.com Office Administrator: Ruth Dobrensky Iucksent@bowesnet.com Santa Claus is coming to town Christmas is right around the corner and I would have to say it's my favourite holiday of the year. There's nothing like getting into the holiday spirit and spending time with those you love and care for. I. have already seen people • with their Christmas lights up` ` on my trips home to Owen Sound. Some people may think that it's too early to start putting Christmas lights up or Christtrias trees, but I say who does it hurt? It's great for people to get into the spirit of the holidays. Christmas lights should also be as tacky as possible. If . you don't get every colour of the rainbow in your lights then it isn't good enough. You will also see the homes that use white lights and go for the elegant look. It's a good look as well Another thing that 1 could do without is having an artificial tree. Isay go with a real- one because the smell of the pine needles and sap brings back- childhood mem- ories of going out and buying a tree with my parents and broth- ers and then decorating it with ornaments and tons of tinsel. Since 'all of my siblings have moved out of the house, my parents have gone with an artificial tree and I tell them every time I come home now, that it's not as good as the real thing. I just get the same answer that it's not as messy and easier to clean up after the holidays are over. I guess I can't complain because as a kid I never had to do the cleanup of the tree. The Lucknow Christmas Parade with its "White Christmas" theme will be here in a couple of days and it will be a treat for the chil- dren of Lucknow. Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus will be stopping by to spread holiday cheer to everyone who comes to see them inthe ... arena. I'm sure everyone will enjoy the tree lighting and the ftee. skating that takes place after the parade. Pat Livingston Ruth Dobrensky The Sentinel is available on microfilm at:.
