Get in the holiday spirit this weekend with the Community Thanksgiving Spectacular in downtown Douglas. The first-ever event is the vision of Mayor Tony Paulk, and he would like to invite everyone to the Martin Centre at 4 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 19.
The spectacular will feature music, inspirational messages, and lots of fellowship. Around dark, the event will move around the corner to Atkinson Plaza, where the brand new community Christmas tree will be formally lighted.
There is a cost to attend the event — $10 at the door or bring a new, unopened gift of a similar amount. Funds and toys collected will go to benefit the less fortunate members of the community. This is sure to be a special event that will set the tone for the upcoming Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
