The holiday season has officially kicked off in Pella.

The annual lighting of the tree took place at the Tulip Toren on the downtown square, children sang Christmas favorites in both English and Spanish, and many downtown area businesses stayed open for late hours during De Kerstdagen Tour of Stores throughout the evening on Monday. The Search for the Crystal Tulip is ongoing, with a new clue posted on Brand Appeal’s Facebook page every day until it is found. The person who finds the crystal tulip will earn $250 in Pella Bucks. The KNIA/KRLS Big Red Radio was at the event accepting food donations for the 13th annual KNIA/KRLS Marion County Food Drive and broadcasting live.
