Good Morning, Plymouth! — Crew From Holiday Lighting Service

If downtown Plymouth looks a little brighter this holiday season, it's thanks to a public-private partnership between the Downtown Development Authority and local businesses.

The two entities each chipped in to have Holiday Lighting Service of Manchester, MI, install LED holiday lights on about 30 trees downtown for the long term.

The new lights will provide an illuminated corridor along South Main Street for the holidays and will remain in place throughout the year for special events.

Tom Kladzyk, Tom Hey and Pat Flaherty took a break from stringing lights from ladders and cherry-pickers to wish Plymouth a good morning and explain the new lights' benefits to residents and Patch readers.
