2024 Festival of Trees

2024 marks the second year that Community Resource EnVision Center (CREC) will be hosting the beloved Festival of Trees; the tradition passed on to the organization by the Kinderhaven Foundation. From 11am to 5pm Saturday, November 30, they invite the communities of Bonner and Boundary counties to participate in a fabulous, free and festive kick-off to the holidays with their Friends and Family Night at its new location, The Hive! There will be photos with Santa, cookies and hot cocoa, a gingerbread contest, local holiday entertainment, free crafts and activities, and festive trees and shopping. This year's Gala, 5:30 to 10pm on December 7 at The Hive, will feature an elevated location with VIP balcony booths, immersive lighting and epic sound system, and exceptional food catered by Justin Dick and 113 Main. Those interested in attending, becoming a tree or silent auction donor, sponsor or volunteer, can email SandpointFestivalofTrees@gmail.com or visit CRECidaho.com/festival-of-trees.
