Children frolic at the 2010 lighting. Seriously. (Candace Shankel/THE SPECTATOR special to CHS)
OK, so, Seattle University was trying to “start” a new neighborhood tradition with last year’s lighting, too. These things take time. Now that a solution has been found for concerns the school was harming an amazing old sequoia, this thing is ready to take off, we can feel it. CHS attended in 2010 and it was really quite lovely.
