            ST. JOSEPH, Mich. -- In Michigan, the holiday season will officially get underway in St. Joe this Friday.
The city has two major events planned starting at 6:30 p.m. Friday. They ask that you come to the bluff for the lighting of the community Christmas tree.
There will also be live mannequins stationed around town at 7 p.m.
The city hopes the move will drum up business and bring people downtown on Friday night.
