Workers were seen putting up the Christmas display at 1st and Chickasha Avenue last week. It appears the display would remind you of a segment of “The Christmas Story” movie that is popular during the holiday season. (WVW photo by Wayne Watts)

Chickasha’s Annual Festival of Light opened last Thursday evening to mild temperatures and an excellent crowd for it’s thirty day run.
