When the day came to an end, NBC 17, The Streets at Southpoint, the volunteers, Feathers, the crowd and Lifehouse stepped back to enjoy the Tree ~ in all its winter wonder!

Here’s a recap of the NBC 17 Tree of Lights ~ 2007!

And don’t forget, we hope to see you next year at the Triangle’s newest holiday tradition!

Making a great Tree of Lights with Lifehouse required some practice.

As the band only got into Durham Saturday morning, lucky shoppers and fans that came early got to jam to soundchecks and rehearsals for the band and NBC 17!

Enjoy!

Tree of Lights was a blur ~ the day happened so fast!

Here are a few of the steps (and truly, only a few steps) NBC 17 took Saturday morning to get ready for all the fun!

Before the show last night I was out asking people to guess how tall the tree was that we lit, and how many lights it takes to light it.  I got some interesting guesses.  So exactly how may lights does it take?  Check out the video to find out.

 How tall is the tree you are getting this year?

Please, let us take a moment to honor a Tree.

A Tree that takes its final bow before a crowd of tens of thousands and makes history in a blaze of glory!

Today The Streets at Southpoint was busy with everyone setting up stages, hanging signs, and putting together finishing touches for the Live show tomorrow evening at 7:30.  So what does the executive producer of the show think about the day before the show?  I spoke with Brian at the tree today to find out:

Our Contest to register to win to meet Lifehouse ended on Tuesday. However, Lifehouse will be performing a LIVE mini-concert at 6:30pm before the show at 7:30pm.

Congratulations to our winners!
