Sukeforth Fest of Trees

(WATERVILLE, October 2, 2015) – The Sukeforth Family Festival of Trees is set for November 20-22 and 27-29 at the Hathaway Creative Center on Water Street in Waterville. This fundraiser will benefit Spectrum Generations Meals on Wheels program, Hospice Volunteers of Waterville area and House in the Woods.

Local organizations and businesses will participate by donating a fully decorated tree along with presents to go underneath it that will be displayed throughout the event.  Admission is $2 with children 12 and under having free admittance. Raffle tickets (50 cents each) will be for sale for attendees to get their chance at winning one (or more) of the fully decked out trees to take home for the Holidays.

“You can expect to see a great family tradition being developed here” said committee member, Nick Cloutier of Spectrum Generations. “With all of these great new developments happening in Waterville, this is the perfect time to start a fun holiday event that brings our local communities together not only for the holidays, but also in support of three great non-profits. It’s a win-win for everyone.”

The event is expected to bring in between 8,000-10,000 people in its first year over the double weekend and has already seen great support from local businesses and community members. There will also be a café set up with holiday treats and visiting hours with Santa for photos.

If you’re an area business who would like to be involved or if you would like more information please contact Annette Sukeforth Marin at 313-3216 or visit the event Facebook page at facebook.com/sukeforthfamilyfestivaloftrees.
