Festival of Trees

The Festival of Trees was a charity event organized by Team Elevate of Keller Williams in partnership with the Meridian Ranch Recreation Center. The event raised money for local non-profits through the communal celebration of the Christmas holiday. Local businesses and individuals donated beautifully decorated Christmas trees to be viewed and bid on in a silent auction by the community. All funds raised went to the Helping Hands for Freedom Holiday Angel Program or another local charity of choice selected by the participant.

The Festival ran for one week beginning November 24th through December 1st and was held at the Meridian Ranch Recreation Center. Throughout the week the community viewed the trees and placed a silent auction bid on any tree they were interested in purchasing. December 1st was the culmination of the Festival of Trees and included Cookies with Santa, a Falcon High School Choir performance and a tree lighting ceremony.

With the support of our community we were able to donate almost $3,000 to local charities. Thank you to all the local businesses and organizations who donated trees!
