Dave Dunn, of Grafton, N.H., helps place 75 Christmas trees on the Lyme, N.H., green while preparing for the third annual Lyme Tree Festival on Nov. 24, 2017. Lyme businesses and families sponsor and decorate the trees -- last year, a plumber used a plunger as a tree topper -- and they will be lit on Dec. 2, 2017, following a parade in the evening. Dunn's sister Pat Pippen, of Lyme, had the idea to start the festival as a fundraiser for The Utility Club of Lyme, an organization that has been in town for 120 years and gives the money raised to high school seniors for scholarships and to local charities.
