Community Christmas Tree and Other Decorations Beautify City for Christmas Season

Local Sources - Jasper Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Nancy Eckerle issued the following statement on the community Christmas decorations for 2021.

The beautiful community Christmas Tree on the courthouse lawn during the 2021 Christmas and holiday season has been donated by Gilbert & Patricia Voegerl of Jasper.

This beautiful tree serves as the main Christmas tree for Jasper – for the entire holiday season.

The lights on the tree, the beautiful red bows and the lighted garland on the street poles were financed by Patoka 2000, a committee of the Jasper Chamber Contributions were received by individuals in the community in memory of loved ones, or in honor of special occasions.

The lights on the trees and perimeter lighting on many of the downtown buildings and the 17 large flower pots that line Main Street were financed by individual merchants and also by the Greater Downtown Jasper Business Association and Heart of Jasper. 

Heart of Jasper volunteers also worked hard this year to place painted trees, garland and lights in the planter boxes in the Square area.

The City Electric Department did an outstanding job again this year of installing all of the garlands, lights and the community Christmas tree.  They also attached the red bows to the tree and were responsible for designing, making and placing the star at the top of the main tree.

Through all of these efforts  -  the city of Jasper will have a bright and festive look throughout the entire holiday season of 2021.
