    Lighting the way for Christmas

    The Thursday-night downtown-Jesup tree-lighting ceremony, which set the stage for visits with Santa and rides in a horse-drawn carriage, was a testament to the power of dedicated local groups working toward a common end. Kudos go to the Wayne County Tourism Board, downtown merchants, the Downtown Development Authority and the Wayne County Chamber of Commerce for a family-friendly way to kick off the holiday season. Above, Chloe Taylor, left, and Gracie Altman sing “Silent Night” as part of the Jesup First Baptist Church children’s choir (which included soloist Micah Feltman). Below, Sybil Lynn, who planted the Christmas tree 19 years ago, is honored with a plaque set up underneath the tree.
