Would someone be willing to do that?\n<ol>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Hello&#8230; my name is Karl Greer and I am the Director of The Carol H. Brice Family Center. Last year, we revived The Children&#8217;s Christmas Tree, which was a long-standing Fairbanks tradition, until it fell by the wayside, some time back. Here&#8217;s how it works:a Christmas tree is erected in front of City Hall and decorated by ornaments provided by various non-profits, one per agency. (Most were customized with the agency&#8217;s name.)There will be a tree lighting ceremony attended by local officials, and The Sweet Adelines will perform a few Christmas Carols. Last year we had a great turnout of families and folks from the participating agencies. To participate, just provide us with an ornament with your agency&#8217;s name on it. It can be &#8220;store-bought&#8221; or hand-made. The deadline for dropping off your ornament at The Carol H. Brice Family Center is Tuesday, December 4th. (OK, I&#8217;ll come get it if you call me, see below.) The event takes place at 4:30PM on Thursday, December 6th, on the steps in front of City Hall. If you just can&#8217;t get an ornament together, we hope you&#8217;ll come and participate anyway!<br \/>\nKarl Greer, Director The Carol H.
