The holiday display, a ‘new’ city tradition, opens November 20, 2007 with a lighting ceremony and entertainment at Clarksville’s McGregor Park RiverWalk on Riverside Drive. This year’s theme is The Spirit of Christmas.

The new montages include a Santa train, a gingerbread park, a snow globe, a giant sea-monster, a fishing scene, Santa flying an airplane, and Santa water skiing. The most striking display will be a lighted, 20-foot Screaming Eagle Emblem custom made to represent Ft. Campbell’s 101st Airborne Division, which currently has hundred of its soldiers deployed in Iraq.

The Grand Opening Celebration for Christmas on the Cumberland will begin with holiday entertainment performed by The Beagles starting at 6:00 p.m., with Mayor Johnny Piper officially lighting up the park during a 6:30 p.m. lighting ceremony.
