7960690879?profile=originalRoberto Bentez and Roberto Baster, Meisner Electric employees, use a cherry picker

to construct the 100-foot Christmas tree at Old School Square on Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach.

Building the tree is a monthlong community event that brings together all types of workers and volunteers.

The volunteers check all 15,000 LED light bulbs, fluff over 3,000 branches and attach them to the tree.
