Milwaukee City Christmas Tree : ウィキペディア英語版 | Milwaukee City Christmas Tree The Milwaukee City Christmas Tree (1913–1995; 2006–present), also known as Milwaukee City Holiday Tree (1995–2006) is a pine tree that is placed at city hall and decorated by the city council of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, during the Christmas holiday season. The tradition began in 1913 and continues to this day. ==History==
The city’s Christmas tree tradition began in 1913. One tree that went on display, a Colorado Blue Spruce, had been a housewarming gift 30 years earlier for a couple who had moved into their new home. Another tree donated had been planted to honor a son who was killed in a car crash. The son’s ashes were mixed in the dirt used to plant the tree.1 In 2008, the chosen tree broke and arrived at the lighting ceremony in two pieces.〔(Watch out for that Christmas tree ) Journal Sentinel, 2009〕 For the 100th anniversary celebration in 2013, the Christmas tree was a 40-foot Colorado Blue Spruce donated by the Loving Shepherd Lutheran Church and School.
