It's hard to believe we are nearing the end of 2019.  Pendleton takes on a magical feel this time of year as homes are transformed into twinkling light displays, and we anxiously await the first big snow.  Although the winter cold has arrived, we hope you venture out to visit many of the holiday activities our local organizations and agencies have planned this month, including the Christmas Luminaries that will be on display at Falls Park.  The Town of Pendleton leadership and staff wishes you and your family a wonderful holiday season.  We'll see you again in 2020!
