Meredith Altrusa VIRTUAL Festival of Trees
Join us for our 25th year of festival celebrations
How? Come right back here starting December 6th
The Festival will go on from December 6th -December 16th
The following information is to let you know how each of the 3 activities can be accessed at that time. These same instructions will be on the same Calendar Events page on Dec 6th. so it will be clear how it all works.
Activity #1: Enjoy a spectacular online slideshow of magical trees. Experience (an abbreviated) Festival history with trivia and trees
since 1996. At the end of the slideshow, you will see three of our most memorable trees selected to represent three local non-profits (Inter-Lakes Christmas Fund, Isaiah 61 Café, and the Inter-Lakes Schools K-12 PTO). Please vote on your favorite of these three trees with a donation. We will match your donation, dollar for dollar (up to $1,000 per tree). Vote on one or all three! Your donations, matched by Altrusa, will be distributed at the end of our event to each of these non-profits. Exactly how to vote/donate will be explained on our website beginning December 6th.
Activity #2 - “Hands on”: You will find two Giving Trees, one displayed at Meredith Hannaford and the other at E.M. Heath Supermarket in Center Harbor. Select an ornament with “giving” instructions or suggestions on the back. Help us help others with creative giving!
Activity #3) ENTER TO WIN! This is our “thank you event”! The larger the donation, the greater chance you have to win from a selection of five spectacular gift baskets, including our 25th Anniversary “Mystery Basket”. Watch for photos, an itemized listing per basket, and how to enter on our website beginning December 6th. Donations must be received by December 14th. The drawing will be held on December 16th, and winners notified the following day by phone and/or email.
Please remember to come back right here starting December 6th to view our Virtual Festival of Trees.
