Season’s Greetings


Sixty years ago, in mid-December 1965, the Supreme Court welcomed the holiday season by placing its first Christmas tree in the Great Hall. It was a 15-foot tree trimmed with over 400 lights and decorations. The Court has continued this holiday tradition ever since, with decorations added by Court employees. This year’s tree is a 30-foot-tall Concolor Fir from Swanton, Maryland.
