Benefiting:
Vacaville's Opportunity House
Welcome to Vacaville's Festival of Trees
The Festival of Trees is the primary fundraiser for Vacaville's Opportunity House. In 2010, the event netted $153,000, bringing the 20 year total to $1,294,000.
The event is a tradition for many Solano County families - where visitors stroll through a festive community decorated with more than 100 trees and holiday vignettes, cross their fingers that they'll be this year's winner of the food-sponsored raffle prize, crowd the homemade crafts table, and delight in home baked treats … all while listening to music performed by local schools and churches.
A very special thank you to all who attended the Festivals past. Plans are underway for 2011 as Festival of Trees continues its long, proud history of helping Vacaville's homeless shelter. We recently received a Facebook fan page and will be using it during the event this year - be sure to "like" us!
