Question: Would the Town please schedule the trash haulers to plan tree pick up to accomodate Little Christmas, which falls 10 days after Western Christmas, more accomodatingly than they did this year? Many of the Irish and almost all of the Eastern Orthodox Christians, usually leave their trees up through Little Christmas, taking them down that day or even in the days after. This year, Little Christmas fell on Tuesday, but tree pick up was sheduled to start on Monday, the day before. There were streets where the pick up was scheduled for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. The result was that anyone on those streets, who celebrated little Christmas ,would have either had to take their trees down early or else missed their pick up. If you've never heard of little Christmas you can google it. My Mom was Irish so we celebrated it, every year.
