National Christmas Tree Lighting


Better light up your computer if you want to see the lighting of the National Christmas Tree. The National Park Service is giving out tickets in an online lottery that runs through Monday morning. The Park Service will hand out 3,000 tickets for seats and 14,000 for standing-room. This year’s lighting is scheduled for December 1st in front of the White House. The president traditionally lights the tree, along with the first family. There will also be a concert to go along with the lighting.
