Wrigley Field Tree-Lighting Ceremony

The Cubs lit up a Christmas tree Thursday evening and got donations of toys for underprivileged children.

A small but enthusiastic gathering of about 100 people watched as Hall of Famer Fergie Jenkins and Cubs Chairman Tom Ricketts (who is sporting newly-grown facial hair!) threw the switch to light up the Cubs' official Christmas tree, which is located outside the Cubs Store on the northwest corner of Clark & Addison.

As you can see in the photo gallery, Clark the Cub was on hand to entertain kids and the Million Dollar Quartet (photo 5, although there appear to be five people in the quartet) performed.
