If the rain stays away then the plan is that tonight at 5pm, the decorations which adorn Nicholson Street in the business area will be placed throughout the strip by generous and hardworking volunteers who answer the call.
In recent weeks, used decorations have been sorted and been given some TLC to bring them back to their former glory.
Again, anyone including children (with supervision) wishing to join in on the decorating fun is welcome to meet at the Snowy River Mail office and take part.
