At top, Marysville Mayor J.R. Rausch and Santa Claus lights the Christmas tree at Monday night’s Christmas Walk event at Partners Park. Despite wet weather, the Memorial Pavilion was packed as residents anxiously waited for the tree to shine with color. The event also gave people the chance to explore the Uptown. Shown below, Santa hears a few gift requests from a child with Big Brothers Big Sisters. Several Uptown shops also stayed open through the night.
