Help bring a little more Christmas magic to Merrill! 🎄

The Christmas of the Past Lights Program is helping replace Merrill’s aging holiday decorations with new lights sponsored in honor or memory of loved ones.

Community members, families and businesses are invited to sponsor a light or make a donation toward the program. New displays will begin appearing throughout Merrill this holiday season as the project grows.

Decorating for fall or Halloween? Add your display to the Merrill Area Fall & Halloween Displays map! Residents in Merrill and the surrounding area are invited to submit their decorated homes by October 20. There is no judging or awards—just a way to share some seasonal fun. The map will be available by October 28.

The City now accepts online and in-person credit and debit card tax payments. There is a 2.39% processing fee ($1.50 minimum) for this service.
