Edgefield Mayor touts town's Christmas Spirit
web
posted November 25, 2009
Dear Edgefield Citizens:
Our town is decorated beautifully again this year and we have a full
agenda of upcoming activities scheduled for the holiday season. You can
find a complete list of these activities by reading your local
news media, viewing channel 16 on the local cable network, watching our
commercial on channel 12, or by calling the Chamber of Commerce or
Edgefield Town Hall.
I want to thank the Edgefield Community Development Association, the
Heritage Corridor, the Edgefield Regional Arts Council and the many
town employees and volunteers who have given their time and talents to
make our downtown area so attractive.
In our effort to make the entire town a showplace where residents and
visitors can enjoy a good old fashion Christmas spirit, I am sponsoring
the fourth annual “Home Decorating Contest”.
I am encouraging as many residents as possible to decorate the exterior
of their homes again this year. You will need to call or stop by Town
Hall (637-4014) to register your home. You may also enter your friends
and neighbors. Entries will be judged on Thursday, December 10th
between 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM and the winner will be announced on the
square at 7:30 PM.
There will be two categories judged again this year: Traditional and
Holly Jolly. The winners will receive a special edition of
Christmas pottery made in Edgefield, just for this event. A
special thanks to Ed Redman and Gary Clontz for their effort in
designing and making the Christmas pottery.
It continues to be a pleasure to be your mayor and experience first
hand, the spirit and enthusiasm happening in Edgefield. In all
the excitement of the holidays, let’s not forget the real reason we
celebrate. Take a moment and reflect on the true meaning of the
season and spread a little joy to those who may be less fortunate this
year!
As always, thank you for your continued support and for “SHOPPING
EDGEFIELD FIRST”.
Ken Durham
Mayor, Edgefield SC
