And, as promised, we are continuing to expand downtown décor to truly celebrate the spirit of the holidays with a Holiday Tree Walk in E. Muskingum Park.  We want the beauty and brightness of our downtown to match the vibrancy and excitement of our community, especially during the holiday season that so many small business owners rely on.  Learn more: https://www.mariettamainstreet.org/christmas-in-july   How to Help  + Sponsor a Lamp Post | $100 each | 100 available  Downtown lamp posts are beautifully-decorated with pre-lit garlands and wreaths, making them vibrant every day and every night. Finished with a big red bow and a gift tag, lamp post sponsors enable Marietta Main Street to continue doing what we do to maintain an attractive, inviting downtown during the holiday season.  Support downtown beautification during the holiday season by sponsoring a downtown lamp post! Sponsors will receive a gift tag on the sponsored post and be included in a published list. Lamp posts may be sponsored In Memory Of or In Honor Of someone.  + Adopt a Tree | $100 each | 50 available  The Holiday Tree Walk is a seasonal attraction that allows locals and tourists to adore a pathway of trees decorated with the spirit of the Marietta community. Each tree represents a local story, memory, or theme.  The Holiday Tree Walk is a new addition to this year’s holiday season. Local businesses, organizations, or individuals may adopt and decorate a real tree that will be installed in E. Muskingum Park during the holiday season. Trees may be adopted In Memory Of or In Honor Of someone.  Thanks to Greenleaf Landscapes – Marietta for installation & support.  + Make a Donation  Learn more: https://www.mariettamainstreet.org/christmas-in-july

That includes the following – food, desserts, utensils, ability to use the restroom :), freebies with total worth of over $1000 dollars, water, roof above your head (where applicable), a chair to sit on (when available) and tables (first comes first sits 🙂 ). On top of it (just like any other low cost airline) for additional $1 only (cash in a bucket. We trust you. If you don’t have any. It’s ok. We won’t be angry) you can get any soft drink. Ice tea. Lemonade. Smoothies!!! Yes ! For $1!  Any alcohol drink (21 and up age) for $2 only ! Just put the money in the jar. We ID! You can take as many freebies you want with you home (not the buffet food.
