Beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Search on for Grande Illumination Tree
Is your evergreen a super model? Would Trya Banks love it the most.
The Dayton Holiday Festival is searching for the perfect tree to stand tall on Courthouse Square this holiday season.
The selected tree will be cut down, hauled to Courthouse Square and decorated with more than 50,000 lights. It will be unveiled in all of its wonder at the Grande Illumination ceremony on Friday, November 27.
The ideal tree will be 45-60 feet tall and 25 feet wide, located on your property in a side of front yard and be a Colorado Green Spruce or Blue Spruce.
Other evergreens will be considered if they are cool enough.
For more information, call the Downtown Dayton Partnership at (937) 224-1518, ext. 227 or visit www.downtowndayton.org.

Donate dress Saturday and receive free ‘Disney on Ice’ ticket
— From Meredith Moss, Staff Writer
Disney wants to sprinkle fairy dust on your old party dress.
Chances are there’s a party dress that’s been sitting in your closet and chances are you’ll never wear it again.
You won’t find a better use for it than this: donate that gently-used prom or bridesmaid gown to Clothes That Work and it will allow a local high school girl to feel and look pretty when she attends her prom or homecoming.
And for doing that good deed, you’ll win a free ticket to Disney On Ice.
The exchange takes place from 10 a.m. until noon on Saturday, Aug. 22 at Clothes That Work, 1133 Edwin Moses Blvd.,Dayton.
The special promotion is available to the first 250 people who bring in their gowns.
One ticket will be given per person, regardless of the number of gowns they donate.
Disney On Ice will be held at Hara Arena from Sept. 17 to Sept. 20. This year’s theme is “100 Years of Magic.”
Clothes That Work is a non-profit organization that provides interview appropriate clothing to referred clients.
