The Festival of trees is one of our largest local fundraisers, with the proceeds going to support our non-profit partners within our community. This festive night features great food, entertainment, a live auction, a silent auction and a wonderful Christmas atmosphere.

Our live and silent auctions items are generously donated by the community, with the live auction funds raised going directly to nonprofits selected by the auction item purchasers from our approved list. Tax receipts will be issued to the purchasers from the organizations they choose to support locally. The silent auction funds that are raised are split between everyone on the approved list. There is no tax receipts issued from the silent auction.


Over the years this event has raised between $15 000 - $ 40 000.00, all of which has gone back into our community.
