The Family Tree Center Presents... Festival of Trees
Updated: December 6, 2012
The Festival of Trees is the holiday event of the season! The Festival of Trees is the major fund-raiser for The Family Tree
Center. The Festival has become one of the finest community activities,
garnering support from banks, hospitals, churches, non-profit
organizations, local businesses, schools and scout troops. The gala event is Thursday November 29 at 6 pm and Friday is the Tree Viewing from 3 pm to 8 pm; Family Fun Night 5 pm to 8 pm; Craft & Gift Show 1 pm to 8 pm at the Shrine Auditorium. Tree Viewing tickets are $3 per person or
$10 per family at the door. Games, activities, and chili during Family
Fun Night for an additional fee.
Begun
in 1985, the Festival of Trees has become synonymous with the holiday
season in Billings. For many residents and visitors, the holidays would
not be complete without at least one visit to view the trees or
participate in the weekend activities.
Each
year, the Festival of Trees provides an opportunity for community
members to help prevent child abuse and neglect in Yellowstone County
and the surrounding area. Donating or buying a tree, sponsoring the
event, or participating in one of the many weekend activities during the
Festival helps raise money and awareness; both help The Family Tree
Center.
Over
the course of this 4-day event, over 10,000 people pass through the
doors to view the unique Holiday Trees and participate in the assortment
of activities.
All
dollars raised at the Festival go where they are needed most--toward the
many child abuse prevention programs in place at The Family Tree
Center. Referrals are increasing, and the number of families that we
serve continues to grow. Now more than ever, the Family Tree Center
needs your support.
The event is held at The Shrine Auditorium. The Gala Dinner & Tree Auction is $75 per person or $800 for a Reserved Corporate Table. To purchase Gala tickets or for more information please call 252-9799 or visit www.familytreecenterbillings.org
