Rotary Ipomoea 12th Christmas tree festival

Members of Rotary Ipomoea are excited to invite the community to their 12th Christmas Tree Festival.

Trees can be commercially bought or a tree in a pot or a branch in a bucket full of wet sand or a painted tree branch.

Trees can be from recycled materials, welded, nailed, or glued.

Lights can be added but are not necessary.

You may choose to do a Nativity, wall hanging or poster, as long as it has a Christmas theme Rotary Ipomoea will love it.

Enter individually or enter your school, club, family, community group, business or church and support this Rotary Ipomoea project to provide a family experience for Forbes and District this Christmas.

Rotary Ipomoea asks that you place a Christmas Greeting on or under your tree from your class, club members, family or business and you may place your groups meeting times and venues under your tree.

Exhibits need to be delivered to the Forbes Town Hall between 7am and 10am, Friday, December 6 or between 3pm and 5pm Thursday, December 6.

The exhibition will be open to the public on Friday, December 6 from 1-5pm, all day Saturday, December 7 from 9pm to 5pm and from 9am to 2pm Sunday, December 8.

Entry to view the Christmas Tree Festival will be $5 per adult and free for primary school children.
