Colin John, left, and Christian Rabe, both with Eagle Crane, take advantage of the nice weather to remove old lights from the 125-foot Community Christmas Tree in Buckley Park. They will replace them with new, commercial-grade lights. The Lighting of the Community Christmas Tree happens the evening after Thanksgiving Day.

Tim Walsworth, executive director of the Durango Business Improvement District, checks out some of the new Christmas lights for the Community Christmas Tree on the southwest corner of Buckley Park. “We are replacing the old, residential-type lights that are currently on the tree with new commercial-grade lights,” he said. The new lights, about 1,000 feet in length, connect so they will not come apart like strings did last year after strong winds came through.
