Every year, on the day after Thanksgiving, almost 100 volunteer decorators show up at the White House. They spend the next five days stringing garlands and hanging ornaments, making the White House sparkle for the holidays.
On this program, we have a related tradition. This is a fourth year in a row that NPR’s White House Correspondent Ari Shapiro has brought us the voices of some of those volunteers.
In a few weeks he will fly to London, to become our newest international correspondent. Before he does, let’s take one last tour through the White House Christmas decorations.
