Festival of Trees gears up for another year.
With trees already decorated by local hairdressers, youth bowling, cubs and scouts, the Dryden Ice Dogs, staff and volunteers with Grace Haven are gearing up for their annual Festival of Trees.
The festival will host decorated trees, wreaths and other items to be sold, a dove tree for donations and a penny and live auction.
With a great schedule of events, the festival starts on Wed., Nov. 24 with local entertainment from the schools and individual performers.
The festival continues on Thursday with the Air Command Band, and Friday will see the seniors catered to and appreciated.
Friday evening will host a wine tasting event, giving anyone the age of majority the chance to sample different wines. This event is very intimate and relaxed, and a perfect chance to explore different tastes in wine.
Saturday will see a morning with Santa at the Our Saviour Lutheran Church and the Winter Wonderland Showcase. There are only five tickets left available for the buffet lunch.
The festival will close with the Kids Have Talent show with over 30 registrants already signed up.
For more info, please contact Grace Haven at 221-2233.
