The annual Illumination Celebration in downtown Barnesville will be held as usual Wednesday night though in abbreviated format due to COVID-19. The Community Worship Service which has always preceded the tree-lighting was cancelled. Music will begin at 6 p.m. with the festivities kicking off at 6:30 p.m. On the schedule are Christmas carols, dancing, a sing-a-long and the arrival of Santa Claus. Attendees are asked to bring an unwrapped toy or a monetary donation to support the Empty Stocking Fund. Due to coronavirus, there will be no bleacher seating so participants should bring their own chairs. For more information, call 770.358.5884.
