Imatran Seudun Sähkö donated a Christmas tree to the townspeople again

Imatran Seudun Sähkö once again donated a Christmas tree to the pedestrian street of Imatran, This is already an old tradition.

Six were picked up on Friday 20.11. From Ritvankuja, from the yard of a private house. Kuus is about 30 years old. In the yard, in a bright spot, it had grown so big that the householders were ready to give up the tree. Every year, the electricity company receives a few proposals for Christmas trees from private people. From them, the company's staff chooses the best one for the pedestrian street.

Finding and transporting spruce is no small operation. It takes time to prepare, because the lower part of the fir tree is prepared for fixing the walkway. The fir tree is sunk to a depth of about 60 centimeters in a cavity in the pedestrian street. Under normal conditions, that cavity is covered with a manhole cover,

Due to the strong wind, the spruce transport was postponed from Thursday to Friday. Since the firs are cut and lifted from their places over the roofs of the residential area onto the truck, the transfer could not be done in yesterday's poison.

- The transfer of the spruce went without any problems today, the network installer who used a chainsaw Jouni Valkonen comment.

The lights on the tree will be lit on Saturday 21.11.
