Stunning fireworks capped the evening's activities at the 2021 Dayton Chamber of Commerce Christmas Kickoff last Friday as clusters of people remained on Main Street for the culminating event. Hundreds of people strolled up and down Dayton's sidewalks, enjoying free mule-drawn hay rides, hot chocolate, beautifully decorated storefronts and Christmas trees. At right, one of downtown's many Nutcracker Soldiers adorned "The Town that Still Believes."
