We are once again a sponsor of this wonderful Rotary International event. Each year, we start the Christmas Season off with the Rotary Festival of Trees on Thanksgiving weekend. The weekend has a variety of activities (listed below) including a family scavenger hunt in the trees and a model train exhibit! Don’t forget to enter the Community Raffle, an activity that allows the entire community to participate and get a chance to take home one of the breathtakingly beautiful trees.

Raffle tickets will be for sale at Divine Consign, 904 Main Street in downtown Vancouver until November 22, and during the Festival of Trees at the Hilton Hotel November 28-30 and from members of the Rotary Club of Vancouver.
