Christmas Tree Lighting 2016
Annual Tree Lighting Event at UMO
On Tuesday, November 29, the UMO community gathered, as it does each year, to share hot chocolate and stroll through the hundreds of luminaries around the center of campus. President and Mrs. Philip P. Kerstetter, surrounded by students wearing blinking Christmas necklaces at UMO Santa hats, lit the University Christmas tree in front of Rodgers Chapel. Students, faculty, staff and family members enjoyed other fun activities including photos with Santa, riding the world’s largest rocking horse, taking a trip down the Snowzilla Slide, snapping photos inside a snow globe, eating fresh popped kettle corn, and riding in a horse drawn carriage. It was a joyous celebration for all!
