Sharon's Tree


Six years ago, Sharon started a new tradition: Decorating and lighting a tree in Bass Park. Everyone gathers on a Sunday evening to sing some songs with the able assistance of local members of the Temple Band. Then, we all move across the street to the Three Maples B&B to celebrate with some food and drink. It's become a very nice tradition for the town.

The first tree was one that had been cut and placed in the park. But, that following summer, the park trustees planted a small spruce tree. Now, five years later, that spruce tree has more than doubled in height--it's now probably 12' tall.

This year, with the lights and the heavy snowfall, the tree is absolutely beautiful.
