The Lake Elsinore Outlets on Friday will be receiving what officials say is tallest live Christmas tree in the Inland area as they prepare the White fir for hanksgiving lighting.
The 60-foot-tall tree will arrive at 6 a.m. at the outlets, located near Interstate 15 at the Nichols Road/Central Aveue exit, according to a news release.That will need one heck of a Christmas Tree Skirt!!)
The tree will arrive in the early morning hours on an 18-wheel flatbed truck from Mt. Shasta. A crew of five men will use an 80 ft. crane to meticulously hoist the 6,000 lb. tree into place. Over the coming weeks, the tree will be decorated with 17,000 red, blue and green LED lights, along with various colored ornaments.
The tree will be lit Thanksgiving evening during the annual Moonlight Madness Sale that begins at 10 p.m
