Christmas Town Ornament
2012

In 1956 the McAdenville Men’s Club conceived the idea of using lights to decorate a few trees 
around the McAdenville Community Center (now the Pharr Family YMCA). 

 Nine Trees were decorated the first year.  Mrs. W J Pharr suggested using the traditional 
colors of Christmas- Red, Green and White.  

The reaction in those early efforts were so favorable that each year the number of decorated trees 
has been increased.  In 2011 over 375 trees were decorated and ranged from 6 feet to more than 90 feet tall.  
The number of lights on individual trees depends on the size of the tree and can range from 500 to over 5000.

This year’s ornament design matches the McAdenville Women’s Club shirt design.  

Each year the McAdenville Woman's Club sells shirts to raise funds for various 
beautification projects, scholarships and programs that assist the town of McAdenville .  

A portion of your purchase price will be donated to the McAdenville Women’s Club to continue their efforts.
