Preview Party kicks off Festival of Trees with a night of sparkles, decorations, music, and scrumptious food. Join us for appetizers and desserts among the tress and help us celebrate the sponsors and designers of Festival of Trees and rejoice in the holiday season with the Junior League Members and the community. This will also be the first opportunity to purchase designer items and preview the gift shop and our 20th Anniversary ornament.
Returning this year, is the popular One-in-Ten Silent Auction. View the amazing silent auction packages up for bid where volunteers will be stationed to collect your auction bids. Each bid will be 1/10th of the retail price with only 10 bids taken per package. Payments for your bids are made prior to the close of the silent auction and a spin of the roulette wheel will determine the winner.
The evening will be held in the lower level of the Radisson, among the trees and in the lower common areas.
