An American holiday tradition started by President Calvin Coolidge in 1923, the National Christmas Tree Lighting is a great example of the countless ways there are to #FindYourPark/#EncuentraTuParque. On December 5, 2019, country music star Jessie James Decker hosted and performed at the national park-inspired holiday event. Additional performers included country singer and winner of The Voice Chevel Shepherd, pop artist and American Idol finalist Colton Dixon, The United States Air Force’s premier rock band Max Impact, country music artist and The Voice finalist Spensha Baker, the Tucson Arizona Boys Chorus, the West Tennessee Youth Chorus, and “The President’s Own” United States Marine Band.
The National Christmas Tree Lighting is presented by the National Park Service and the National Park Foundation. You can follow the National Christmas Tree on Twitter at @TheNationalTree and visit thenationaltree.org to learn more.
