Happy Camp Chamber of Commerce has, for many years, held a Community Tree Lighting. This year is no exception and will be held on Thursday, December 6th in the Happy Camp District Forest Service Office on Highway 96.

Lou Tiraterra, Sr. will be leading, with the Happy Camp Elementary School children, in Christmas Carols. There will be cider, cocoa and popcorn for those who come before supper.

Santa will also make his traditional arrival to hear the boys and girls tell what they want for Christmas.

Thank you to the Happy Camp Chamber of Commerce for continuing this long held tradition. Thank a board member when you see them, president is Chris Sorenson of Mosaic Press. Since last April when the new board took office, Karen Tolledo and Linda Zink from Scott Valley Bank have been appointed to take the place of Lehel G and Roberta Arneson who have resigned.

Other Christmas events planned for Happy Camp in December are two Children's Christmas Parties. One Children's Christmas party will be held by the Happy Camp Lions club and the other by the Karuk Tribe of California but both are planned for December 15th. The Grange also is planning a Holiday Bazaar on December 1st at the Grange on 2nd Avenue in Happy Camp.

John Kufner was honored for 35 years as coach! The recognition ceremony was at half time at a recent Happy Camp football game. The signed football was presented by his mother, Lola Bassett who was escorted by Phil Tripp and Jeano Wright.

The stands applauded in appreciation for what Coach Kufner has dedicated many years teaching, both in the classroom and the football field, at Happy Camp High School!
