I was in the drugstore two days before Halloween and I was greeted by the melodies of Christmas carols and the shelves were jam packed with holiday merchandise.
Once again, Thanksgiving gets the shaft.
Since everyone else is jumping the gun and springing right to the holidays, we here at GovGab are going to follow suit.
The 2009 National Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony will take place on Thursday, Decemer 3rd. The ceremony includes not only the lighting of the National Christmas Tree, but music from the U.S. Marine Corps Band and 56 (one for each state, 5 territories, and the District of Columbia) other smaller trees arranged in a "pathway to peace."
To attend you must enter a ticket lottery- but hurry! You can only apply from November 4th through November 6th!
In preparation for the holidays, remember to be safe. Check out some tips HERE.
