The Frosting on this Cake Called Kent
It's time for some icing on this cake. With all of the growth and continued awesomeness we're experiencing here in Kent, we've decided it's time to decorate like never before this holiday season!
This is the year to do it. It's time for some icing on this cake. With all of the growth and continued awesomeness we're experiencing here in Kent, we've decided it's time to decorate like never before this holiday season!
Over the next couple of weeks, you'll see people hanging decorative skylines over intersections, giant snowflakes and wreaths on light posts...and all of the lights will be turned on the Saturday after Thanksgiving!
On November 24th, Small Business Saturday, downtown Kent will be illuminated beyond recognition when the sun goes down. Downtown businesses are taking part in a window decorating and lighting contest too, so from every direction, Kent will be amazingly beautiful. Enjoy it!
