Savanna Festival of Trees

The Savanna Historical Society is excitedly looking forward to their first Festival of Trees! Responses from businesses, organizations and individuals have been tremendous, according to organizers of the event.

They have several openings left for more sponsors of trees, but are advising those interested to act fast and sign up, for it’s a ‘first- come’ basis.

Sponsors will decorate a tree and donate at least $25 worth of gifts or gift cards beneath their tree on behalf of their business or organization. The SHS received a donation of a $500 new bicycle, which will be part of the organization’s raffle gift. Sponsors gifts will be used in a SHS fundraising raffle held during the Festival from Dec 2-11th. Visitors will vote on their favorite displays and prizes will be awarded for the best trees. Most sponsors will be providing their own trees, but the museum does have a few that can be used if needed.

Sponsors will be guests of SHS at a special Festival of Trees preview, the ‘Jingle Mingle’ party held on Dec 2nd at the museum. The festive party will give the attendees the opportunity to celebrate the community and enjoy the holiday spirit and camaraderie of other sponsors.

Being a sponsor is a great way to show that a business or organization supports the community and the Savanna Museum and Cultural Center. It is not too late to be a sponsor and be part of Savanna’s Holiday spirit!
