Today is the first day that candidates can sign up for the April elections.  From what I've heard, there was a line of people at City Hall at 8:00 this morning to register for their Wards.

It will be interesting to watch how this election pans out.  There is already a buzz of activity over at Arnold Talk and I expect it will only grow between now and April. 

Here is a list of places I've seen that you can buy Christmas trees from

Boy Scout lot
Fox campus, Jeffco Blvd
Sale of trees directly supports the boy scouts and their events

Tree Lot at corner of Jeffco and Tenbrook
Trees start at $19.99

Wal Mart

Home Depot

On Saturday December 16th from 10:00am to 4:00pm at Sherwood Elementary the Sherwood Parents Club will be providing a FREE gift wrapping service open to the community.  This is a great opportunity people who don't have the time or those who would just like some help wrapping their gifts.  Bring your Christmas gifts and a magazine and just sit back and relax as Santa’s helpers do the work for you.   All donations will be greatly appreciated.
