Tree Sale Setup 2024
The Dads of the Park Ridge Wilderness Scouts and Princesses were at work over the weekend setting up for our annual Tree Sale. We’re looking forward to another great year of raising funds for local charities.
It starts this Friday at 4:30pm – the day after Thanksgiving – come on out for a tree, a wreath, some garland, or a tree ornament.
Come support a great cause and a long standing tradition!
The Tree Amigos
It may be summer, but our treemasters are already getting updates and improvements ready for the Christmas Tree Lot for 2024!
Tree Sale 2022 Starts Friday!
Come out and support our biggest charity fundraiser – pickup some trees or wreaths and help local organizations do good in our community!
Christmas Tree Sale 2021
The long-running tradition continues this year. Come on out and bring home a Fraiser Fur or perhaps Balsam tree, choose a nice wreath from three different sizes, or pick up some garland.
It all starts on Black Friday, Nov 26th at the corner Touhy Ave and Western Ave in Park Ridge.
Remember, it’s for a good cause; everything we make goes to local charities. We accept cash or check.
See you there!
The Christmas trees have arrived.
Dads arrived Saturday morning at 8:00 am to unload the trailer, set-up the tree racks, and erect the tent for the upcoming annual Christmas tree sale. Dads returned early Sunday morning to unload three semi trailers carrying over 750 Christmas trees. This is a massive undertaking. Tree Masters Terry Jolineau and Joe Ott masterfully organized and managed the all volunteer crew. Dads completed the set-up in record time on Saturday and Sunday.
A special thank you goes to all of our volunteers this weekend. Without these dads help, this Christmas tree sale would not take place. All proceeds are donated to local charities and other non-profit organizations. Since 2008, the Park Ridge Wilderness Scouts and Princesses have donated over $125,000 to help the community.
