The tradition of Christmas and the celebration of the birth of the Christ child, represented by this lighted creche on the lawn of the Garfield County Courthouse, are long-established in Garfield County from the days of the pioneers to modern times. Even COVID-19 cannot disrupt the representation of the Bethlehem manger scene, compete with the Magi, camels and livestock attending to the birthplace of Jesus. This display comes out every year and underscores the deep faith present in this community through numerous pioneering families whose descendants reside in Pomeroy and the surrounding area to this day.
