Gulfport, Florida -- For years, former Gulfport mayor, Mike Yakes, tried to light the Christmas tree in Clymer Park, and every year he found himself unable to do so without help from some of the youngest Gulfportians. Monday night Gulfport’s new mayor, Sam Henderson, tried to light the tree only to discover that he, too, lacked the power to launch Gulfport into the Christmas season without help from Gulfport’s kids.
