Photos: Clawson Celebrates Annual Christmas Tree-Lighting Ceremony

The holiday spirit has officially shined its light on Clawson. The city lit up its giant Christmas tree at on a cold, rainy Monday evening. Dozens of families gathered around the gazebo, where there was Christmas caroling and introductions of the Clawson pageant winners.

Santa Claus made a grand entrance on a Clawson fire truck, and Mayor Penny Luebs handed him the key to the city, a yearly tradition.
