Donated Christmas trees arrive for holiday events in three cities

Community-donated Christmas trees are being installed in downtowns in Rapid City, South Dakota, Youngstown, Ohio, and Dawson Creek, British Columbia, ahead of seasonal celebrations. Rapid City’s tree was donated by Janet and Marlow Scherbenske, while Youngstown’s Norway spruce came from Perry Marlowe; local crews and businesses helped move and install the trees. Each city plans a public tree-lighting event with holiday activities, including a parade and drone show in Youngstown and festivities around Dawson Creek’s lighting.
