The hugely popular Lighting of the Tree and Star kicked off the Christmas Season in Shell Knob at the Central Crossing Senior Center on Friday, December 6. The entire community was invited, and the event was jam-packed with family fun.

Doors opened at 5 p.m., and the community seemed to be waiting for the event to begin. Upon entering the Center, everyone enjoyed complimentary soup, desserts and soft drinks provided by the Shell Knob Elementary School and Shell Knob Seniors, Inc.

The event then officially kicked off with CEO of the Shell Knob Seniors, Inc., giving an invocation and sharing the Christmas story with everyone present.  

Following that, the Shell Knob Elementary students, kindergarten through fourth grade, entertained the masses with their special Christmas program. Santa, his wife, Mrs. Claus, and one of his special elves broke into their busy schedule and visited with the many children who wished to share with Santa their hopes and dreams for this Christmas. All in all, a fantastic and festive time was had by all.
