Nineteen days left until Christmas but it's already begun in downtown Great Falls. The 25th Annual Christmas Stroll took place Friday night (12/5). After the parade of lights, Santa lit the city's official tree for the first time. Afterwards kids met with the big man and made sure they’re on the nice list. More than 30 food vendors and thousands of people were in attendance. Four members of the KFBB news team jumped into the freezing water for the polar plunge raising more than $800 dollars for the Special Olympics.
