🎄 REMINDER! 🎄
Tomorrow is the very first Pinehurst Annual City Tree Lighting — which means it’s officially time to pretend we’ve been cheerful and organized all season.

The Grinch and Santa will BOTH be there doing a photoshoot together, so come witness this historic moment of forced holiday cooperation. (We’re not saying there might be a candy-cane-related argument… but there might be.)

There will also be hot chocolate, cookies, and hot dogs, because nothing says “holiday magic” like a suspicious combination of sugar and hot dogs.

Bring your friends, bring your family, bring anyone who needs a little holiday cheer (or a lot of it).

🎄BREAKING HOLIDAY NEWS🎄

Turns out Santa isn’t the only one who wants cute Christmas pics this year…

The Grinch just announced he’s joining the holiday photoshoot too — apparently he’s “trying to fix his image” and “get more likes than Santa.”

He’s demanding a soft-focus lens (to “minimize the grumpy”) and a contract ensuring zero carolers within 50 feet.

Santa says he’s fine with it, but the elves are already filing complaints. Stay tuned for the most chaotic Christmas photoshoot ever!

🎄🔔 HOLIDAY REMINDER ALERT! 🔔🎄
🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

Just a friendly (and slightly urgent) reminder that THE GRINCH is still planning to crash our City Christmas Tree Lighting on December 11th, 2025!

But don’t worry—we’ve got plenty of holiday cheer on our side!
There will be caroling, hot chocolate, and cookies for everyone to enjoy!

So, remember: Wear your brightest, most festive outfits and bring your loudest holiday spirit!

Spread the cheer—share this reminder!

PSA: There will be a photo shoot with Santa! Don’t forget to bring your smiles!

🍁🦃 Happy Thanksgiving from the City of Pinehurst! 🦃🍁

Thanksgiving has arrived, which means Pinehurst is running on a joyful mix of family, casseroles, and that one pie everyone pretends they didn’t already sample “just to make sure it was okay.”

Whether you’re carving a bird or carving out time for family, we hope your day is full of laughter, good food, and Southern-style relaxation.

Holiday truth time:
🦃 The turkey timer isn’t a suggestion — but we’ll all ignore it anyway.
🥧 Pumpkin pie is an acceptable breakfast.
🍽️ If your plate isn’t structurally questionable, you’re not doing it right.

From our cozy hometown to your table:

Happy Thanksgiving, Pinehurst! May your day be filled with warmth, good food, and enough laughter to drown out the smoke alarm.

🎄🚨 URGENT HOLIDAY ALERT 🚨🎄

Word on the street (and by “street” we mean Whoville gossip channels) is that THE GRINCH is planning to crash our City Christmas Tree Lighting on December 11th, 2025! 😱💚

He says he’s coming to “improve the decorations,” which we all know is Grinch-speak for steal everything shiny and pose for dramatic exit photos.

So, we need YOUR help!
👉 Wear your brightest, most festive outfits!
👉 Bring your loudest holiday cheer!
👉 Be ready to out-jingle, out-sparkle, and out-merry the Grinch himself!

Let’s show him he can’t steal OUR Christmas spirit! 💫
See you there—unless the Grinch sees you first… 👀🎁💚
