U.S. Capitol Christmas tree stops in Paducah today

The U.S. Capitol Christmas tree will make a stop in Paducah today on its way to Washington, D.C.

The tree will arrive at the Farmer’s Market Pavilion downtown on Friday around 4 p.m. The public is invited to attend a "whistle stop" party from 5-7 p.m.

Paducah Main Street will host the event with caroling and hot cocoa. Several downtown businesses and vendors will be set up to give everyone a jump-start to the Christmas shopping season. An official banner will be displayed with the tree for guests to sign.

Local officials will be there as part of the event, and one jolly old elf will stop by, as well.

Silver Belle, as the tree has been dubbed, was harvested on public land in Nevada. The journey to Washington has included stops in Arizona, Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas, before a stop in St. Louis. Paducah is the next stop before it makes its way to Lexington.
