# Christmas tree fire in Amsterdam-Noord

To prevent young people from indiscriminately setting fire to old Christmas trees all over the place, Amsterdam-Noord has taken the initiative to set up an official public Christmas tree burning event. SHOTS: - Schoolboys drag a few Christmas trees through narrow streets, stack them somewhere against a blind wall and set fire to them; - Groups of boys carry Christmas trees onto a square; in the middle of the square they build a big fire-hump with them; - In the evening the hump goes up in flames; a large crowd of young and old people look on in delight.
