EAST PROVIDENCE — East Providence municipal employees were busy earlier this week erecting the Christmas tree in front of City Hall.

The tree was donated by a city resident who wished to have it removed from their property. Members of the Public Works Department put it the tree up on the west end of City Hall and decorated it.

The tree was being prepared for the city's annual lighting ceremony set for Monday evening, Dec. 7, at 6 p.m.

Santa Claus will arrive by fire truck at 6:30 p.m. to light the tree. Free refreshments and holiday music will be provided. This event is open to the public. For more information contact the City Clerk’s Office at 435-7596.
