Downtown Inc, the York County Economic Alliance, and a dedicated group of volunteers will inaugurate the holiday season with the hanging of fresh pine roping and bright red bows throughout Historically Edgy Downtown York as part of the annual Hanging of the Greens on Sunday, November 24 from 10am-12pm.

This much-anticipated yearly event marks the official start to the holiday season in Downtown York as the downtown streets are transformed creating a festive environment for shoppers, visitors, and residents alike.
