The City of Checotah had its Christmas Tree Lighting Contest and businesses and organizations did their best to light up down Broadway again this year.
City Councilman Mike Key stated he was pleased with all the hard work and effort of everyone involved with this community project.
“It’s just nice to see all the lights as you’re driving into town,” Key said. “It truly makes the season bright.”
