 After two days of construction, Paul Bunyan's Christmas tree in Bemidji is officially completed in Paul Bunyan Park. If Star was placed on top by Otter Tail Power Company this morning, there are over 20,000 lights on the 56 foot tree. Next workers will begin installing security fencing, a computer system and a sound system. Then the tree will officially be lit up right after the Night We Light parade. It's going to be the first of its kind for the city of Bemidji. We're excited to debut. Paul Bunyan's Christmas tree to the masses here after the Night We Light parade, November 23rd. Parade starts at 6pm and the ceremony follows immediately after the parade. So if you're kind of wondering on an exact time, anywhere between 6.45 and 7.15, all the lights, all 200,000 lights plus Paul Bunyan's Christmas tree will turn on together. And those details should take a little over a week to complete. If you enjoyed this segment of Lakeland News, please consider making a tax-deductible contribution to Lakeland PBS.
