## About

The town lights its Christmas tree at the Smyrna Train Depot, with music, treats, and festive performances. Children can join a sing-along led by SOAC staff, and Smyrna fire and police offer a photo with Santa and Ms. Claus. The depot is the downtown Front Street landmark the parks department describes as a restored gathering spot with indoor restrooms. The town says the ceremony is free to attend and that weather or schedule changes will be posted on the town's social accounts.
