01 Dec 2014 Fairfield Bay to hold Festival of Trees
Fairfield Bay will light up the holiday season with a winter spectacular in their inaugural Festival of Trees event through Saturday, Dec. 13.
Fairfield Bay’s Conference and Visitor Center has been transformed into a wonderland of holiday elegancy and whimsy to suit any age, family or individual.
“Fairfield Bay community organizations, businesses and families have joined together to create this holiday festival,” said Heather Dunn, director of the Fairfield Bay Chamber of Commerce. “We’ve got all the twinkling lights, sounds and smells of this blessed season that you could need to get in the spirit and ready for some truly happy holidays.”
Trees, trees and more trees
Explore this special forest of trees and leave inspired and ready for the season. No two are alike and range from whimsical to traditional, from kid- to pet-friendly! One tree is a special Community Giving Tree, filled with wish lists of local families in need with information on how visitors can help.
Trees will be on display in the Conference Center from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. each day through Dec. 13. Families are encouraged to bring cameras and capture their special photo.
What’s on your wish list?
Santa has reserved his seat noon until 4 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 6, in the lobby of the conference center to visit with guests young and old alike! A professional photographer will be onsite to take orders for prints. And be sure to get there in time to enjoy the Christmas Movie (Polar Express) playing in the theater, starting at 1:30 p.m.
