Southpark Mall and Simons Malls have decided to abandon a long standing tradition of having a Christmas tree in the center of the mall and Christmas tree lighting ceremony. We, the community of Charlotte, feel this is in poor taste and needs to be corrected. As the Christmas shopping season begins, we feel Simons mall surely doesn't want to lose customers over changing a long standing tradition. We urge Southpark and Simons mall to bring back our tradition. #BringBacktheTree @SouthParkMallNC @Simonmalls
