How You Can Participate

•  Enter a decorated holiday item such as a tree, wreath, stocking, centerpiece or other holiday item.   
• Contribute an incentive.  This can be anything from a gift card to sporting event tickets.  You may wish to make your incentive a product or a service gift certificate that represents your business.  Incentives are used to increase the sales value of each entry. 
• Donate an art or craft item which can serve as your entry...we have found that art makes a terrific entry that generates a great deal of interest.
• Purchase an entry at the festival auction on December 5.  Our auction buyers are just as critical to the success of the project.

What You Get Back   

• When you enter Festival of Trees or provide a product or service as an auction incentive, you will receive plenty of publicity as we promote the entries and their sponsors ahead of time through the mail, email, chamber newsletters, and on the chamber website, and then auction them live on WHIZ radio.
• Auction buyers get recognition on the radio when they buy plus they are recognized in chamber publications and the chamber website.
• You can claim your entry or auction purchase as a business expense, since it is a legitimate marketing and promotion cost.
