00:21:16,039 --> 00:21:18,640
about 39 years
390
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:23,080
ago my mom lesie and my dad
391
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:27,000
George bought this land and carve that
392
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,200
there all they had was a mortgage in a
393
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,480
dream but this tree
394
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,279
represented everything that they would
395
00:21:34,279 --> 00:21:35,120
watch
396
00:21:35,120 --> 00:21:37,200
grow that's
397
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,279
beautiful don't you want to share that
398
00:21:39,279 --> 00:21:41,919

to keep it with my family where it
401
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,400
belongs what about Joey it would mean so
402
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,200
much to him well it would now because
403
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:53,960
he's eight but trust me 20 years from
404
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,799
now when this tree is still standing
405
00:21:55,799 --> 00:21:58,039
it'll mean a lot more to him than him
406
00:21:58,039 --> 00:22:00,879
seeing it with some
407
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,120

ceremony on TV every year but many
598
00:32:03,399 --> 00:32:05,279
people don't know it's history so I
599
00:32:05,279 --> 00:32:07,559
wanted to share it with you and you did
600
00:32:07,559 --> 00:32:10,480
all this for us I might have had some of
601
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:11,679
it prepared
602
00:32:11,679 --> 00:32:14,679
already
603
00:32:15,519 --> 00:32:19,559
okay in 1930 during the Great Depression
604
00:32:19,559 --> 00:32:21,600
the first Radcliffe Christmas tree was
605
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,720
placed in the plaza for everyone who
606
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,440
couldn't afford a tree decorated with
607
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,120
gum wrapper garlands and Tin cans it
608
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,080
became a centerpiece of the
609
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,880
community neighbors gathered around it
610
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:35,600
Carol and shared
611
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,799
food since then every year the Radcliff
612
00:32:38,799 --> 00:32:41,440
Center has had a tree and although the
613
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,639
trees get more elaborate and spectacular
614
00:32:43,639 --> 00:32:46,240
every year we never forget what it
615
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:47,519
started
616
00:32:47,519 --> 00:32:50,000
as a symbol of
617
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,000
community a place for people to come
618
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,120
together a gathering spot for families
619
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,519
friends and neighbors to be cheered
620
00:32:58,519 --> 00:33:00,600
supported and marveled not just in the
621
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:04,360
beauty of the season but in each
622
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,840
other which is what Leslie's tree could
623
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,959
be to so many
624
00:33:14,370 --> 00:33:20,960
[Music]
625
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,600
people I vote
626
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,480
Yes Holly this is wonderful
627
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,120
but I think we need some more time to
628
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,600
mull it over could we have more time I
629
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:34,919
wish I could give you all the time in
630
00:33:34,919 --> 00:33:36,960
the world I I know this is a huge
631
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,480
decision for all of you but the tree
632
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,600
lighting is literally around the corner
633
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,880
and it takes time to transport and
634
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:48,039
decorate and in the end if you say no
635
00:33:48,039 --> 00:33:50,519
could you at least give us till tomorrow
636
00:33:50,519 --> 00:33:52,799
and that way uh it'll give us some time
637
00:33:52,799 --> 00:33:55,559
to ask any questions we might have what
638
00:33:55,559 --> 00:33:59,720

reminds me of home of Chicago oh no no
695
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,400
Chicago is where I live but my family's
696
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,920
farm that one's home I guess I always
697
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,240
figured I'd end up back there so why
698
00:37:08,240 --> 00:37:10,880
didn't you well the plan was that I'd
699
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:12,960
get a degree in horiculture and then
700
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:14,640
return
701
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,720
home um my parents had this dream of
702
00:37:17,720 --> 00:37:20,839
expanding the farm and as I got older it
703
00:37:20,839 --> 00:37:23,079
became a dream of my own something I
704
00:37:23,079 --> 00:37:25,839
wanted to do for myself and and for my
705
00:37:25,839 --> 00:37:28,520
mom for her Legacy
706
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:30,319
especially at Christmas
707
00:37:30,319 --> 00:37:33,960
time but um when my dad passed away I
708
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,319
had to decide between school and the
709
00:37:36,319 --> 00:37:39,160
farm I was 19 at the time and the
710
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,119
thought of running a business alone just
711
00:37:41,119 --> 00:37:45,000
was terrifying right so I sold the land
712
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:48,040
and I got a job at Radcliffe I moved to
713
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,119
Chicago became a city
714
00:37:50,119 --> 00:37:52,680
girl yeah I guess I am just a little bit
715
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,319
of a city girl I do get nervous if I'm

00:37:54,319 --> 00:37:55,800

Short well that's the best backup that I
760
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,960
found do you have a better option no I'm
761
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,160

867
00:45:51,839 --> 00:45:53,960
great memories from the tree in the
868
00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:56,319
winter we would collect boughs and make
869
00:45:56,319 --> 00:45:58,920
wreaths then in the summer we would have
870
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:02,000
picnics under the tree
871
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:05,880
shade I'll miss the tree but it'll be so
872
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,280
special to see it in
873
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,400
Chicago now you just have to convince
874
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:12,319
Sam which after today I don't think
875
00:46:12,319 --> 00:46:13,839
it'll take as much convincing as I
876
00:46:13,839 --> 00:46:15,559
thought it's beginning to look a little
877
00:46:15,559 --> 00:46:17,800
like
878
00:46:19,240 --> 00:46:24,040

four that that's a majority vote well I
881
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:31,119
want it to be unanimous I don't want Sam
882
00:46:31,119 --> 00:46:33,640
to feel like I stole something from him
883
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:36,000
well fingers crossed he says yes
884
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,079
tomorrow I mean he could ask for one
885
00:46:38,079 --> 00:46:39,640
more day it sounds like he just wants to
886
00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:41,800
spend more time with you that is not
887
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:44,240
what he's
888
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:45,960
doing
889
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:49,200

lovely and um I'm actually starting to
892
00:46:55,559 --> 00:46:57,640
think that maybe the tree should
893
00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:02,640
stay but maybe it belongs here Holly
894
00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:06,160

952
00:50:18,599 --> 00:50:20,760
tradition people used to put Evergreen
953
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:23,640
boughs in their homes and the boughs
954
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,000
were a reminder that no matter how harsh
955
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,920
the winter spring would always return
956
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:30,839
and that's what a Christmas tree is a
957
00:50:30,839 --> 00:50:33,400

attitude and then you tell me
1119
00:59:38,799 --> 00:59:41,240
that Christmas is a time to celebrate
1120
00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:42,960
the people that you
1121
00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:47,599
lost that it makes you feel closer to
1122
00:59:47,599 --> 00:59:52,119

to do long distance actually I was
1188
01:03:39,599 --> 01:03:41,279
thinking about staying

01:03:41,279 --> 01:03:43,599
here I mean I would get the tree and
1190
01:03:43,599 --> 01:03:44,720
carry us through the tree lighting
1191
01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:48,359
ceremony but after that I'm thinking
1192
01:03:48,359 --> 01:03:52,440
about leaving Radcliffe and giving it a
1193
01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:55,200

1195
01:03:56,640 --> 01:03:58,160

1196
01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:00,079
