Festival of Trees 2011
The Twenty-Third Annual Festival of Trees began December 2 at Masonicare Health Center in Wallingford. This very popular and highly anticipated event features a silent auction of 60 unique, beautifully decorated tabletop trees.
The lighted trees are designed and trimmed by teams of Masonicare employees, volunteers, and residents. The Grand Lodge office, and the Eastern Star Charity Foundation are also participating.
The trees will be on display in the lobby of Masonicare Health Center until Tuesday, December 20. Everyone is welcome to visit the Center any day between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. to view the trees and place a bid. Bids will be closed at 2:30 p.m. on December 20, when the highest bidders will be announced and winners can claim their holiday tree. Winners will be notifi ed if they can’t be present on that date. All proceeds from the auction will be used to support a host of great programs and activities for the residents of Masonicare Health Center.
As always, this year’s Festival features a wide range of trees with unique and imaginative decorations and a variety of themes that will appeal to every taste and delight adults and children of all ages. One of the trees may be just what you’re looking for to complete your holiday decorating or the perfect gift for that very special person. Be sure to stop by and place your bid!
