🎄🎄2024 Festival of Trees Directory🎄🎄
Brought to you by Good Tire Service

Take a look at all of these business and individuals that took part in this year’s event! The numbering starts on the south end of the park (Sheetz) and continues north (towards the dam).

Please avoid the Riverfront Park until this evening as our team members and volunteers will be installing trees today. Trees will be available for decoration starting tomorrow.

As in the past, lights will be placed under your tree today. Feel free to stop and pick up your lights after 5PM and decorate your tree at your convenience.

Reminder: Trees need to be undecorated by January 14th. Any decorations left on trees will be disposed of after this date. If you plan to participate next year, you can return your sign to BS Outfitters and we will safely store it to use again.
