WESTWOOD - The Christmas spirit is in the air in Westwood.
The city, which held a luminary Christmas light drive-through event last year, hasn't let the pandemic stop it from decking out in festive lights and decorations.
Although there will not be an organized event this Christmas season in light of the pandemic, many houses still have fun displays on their yards that can be viewed at night. Henry County residents looking for a quick and fun holiday activity can drive by the houses to see blowup Santas and reindeer throughout the city.
