In December 2021, the Whoville Christmas tree was toppled by the 'Grinch' disguised as a Kansas windstorm.
Whoville is a non-profit organization in Manhattan, Kansas, which has organized the annual "Festival of lights" display at Blue Earth Plaza .
"Festival of lights" is coming back to Blue Earth Plaza for the 10th year with a brand new tree and lighted tunnel to replace the damaged ones.
The Whoville "Festival of lights" tree and tunnel displays will start being installed on Monday, November 7th, a new support and anchoring system is being installed starting October 27th.
The new anchoring system is to ensure safety of community members visiting the display, as well as, minimize damage from wind and storms
