Easton claims to be the site of the first Christmas tree in America. According to local tradition, German immigrants in Easton decorated a Christmas tree in 1816. While this claim is widely celebrated in Easton, it is somewhat disputed by historians, but what do they really know? Join us as we parade from the Peace Candle to America's First Christmas Tree in Scott Park!!! Parade kicks off at 6pm!
