The Shelbyville Satellite Group, which is part of the larger Cheekwood Chapter of the Embroiderers Guild of America (EGA), recently gathered for its 28th annual tree decorating. Each year, the group gathers at a different bank and decorates a Christmas tree. This year, the lucky bank was Peoples Bank, located at 1122 N. Main St. See the full story at http://www.t-g.com/story/2030814.html

The bare tree with lights is provided by the bank each year.
