US Capitol Christmas Tree arrival marks begins of holiday season in DC
The Christmas season has officially arrived at the U.S. Capitol! The U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree pulled in bright and early Friday morning.
The tree and crew left North Caroline in early November and made over a dozen stops along the way to celebrate the journey with members of the community. At each stop, well-wishers were able to sign a banner on the tree and learn more about the nation’s national forests.
The tree will be put into position in front of the U.S. Capitol. The official tree lighting will take on the Capitol's West Lawn on November 30.
