Living Windows 2009 is Thursday from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the Knoxville square, presented by the Knoxville Chamber of Commerce and the Mentor Study Group. That’s according to Melinda O’Field with the Chamber. She says the event will feature live holiday displays in merchant windows, barrel train and horse drawn carriage rides and more, including The Arrival of Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus at 6:30 p.m. on the south side off the Square. The event is sponsored by Doty’s and Alliant Energy.

The KNIA/KRLS Big Red Radio will also be in the event, and residents are encouraged to bring food which will be collected for the 8th Annual KNIA/KRLS Food Drive during the event: help us fill up the Big Red Radio and together we’ll help fill the local food banks of Marion County.
