Tommy, the little tree that could, did

Residents stepped up to drop off toys and gifts at various locations around town in honour of the 'Charlie Brown' tree nicknamed 'Tommy'

Tommy the Tree started its stand near the cenotaph with some controversy: not big enough, tourists won't like it, needs more baubles. But then the town and the Royal Canadian Legion turned Tommy into a gift-giving tree and collected toys to donate to Newark Neighbours and Niagara Regional Native Centre.
