 After weeks of dedicated work by Clarksville Department Parks and Recreation staff, Christmas on the Cumberland shines brightly
With a light drizzle that turned to a steady rain, the kickoff of the 2009 Christmas on the Cumberland still managed to draw a crowd. Several hundred people came to see Mayor Johnny Piper, Santa Claus, Miss Tennessee International, Mrs. Fort Campbell, Charlie Brown, & News Channel 4’s Snowbird flip the switch lighting of over 1 million lights lining both sides of Riverside Drive, and the Riverwalk. Christmas carolers from Austin Peay State University provided the pre-ceremony entertainment.
Santa Claus was on hand to pose for pictures with attendees. For those who were unable to make it to the grand opening.
Christmas on the Cumberland officially opened November 24th and runs through January 1st. It will be open to the public nightly from 5-10p.m. and 5-11p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. Admission to the event is free.
