This is a little preview of a vid to follow on this Village's Tree Lighting Festivities.  How many villages today have an official "Town Crier"? This village outside of Cincinnati, Ohio has one of few in North America.

One of the first planned communities in the United States, the village of Mariemont was incorporated on July 12,1941. It is well-known for its charming historic architecture, lush foliage, parks and green spaces, award-winning schools and friendly, community-minded residents. Founded in the 1920s by Mary Emery, Mariemont exhibits English architecture from Norman to classic Georgian style. Bell Tower Park offers chime concerts on Sundays throughout the summer months. The village square serves as the community center with red brick Tudor buildings, including the Mariemont Inn and historical Mariemont Barber Shop.In 2007, the Village was designated a National Historic Landmark.

Mariemont is a place; but it is also a concept. Some people refer to that concept as the Mariemont Story. From the day that it's founder, Mary M. Emery, laid the first shovel to the Village, the Mariemont Story began.
