After a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, the event will be held in person on Decem- ber 3. Hospice of Redmond’s Fes- tival of Trees supports hos- pice services for those living throughout Central Oregon. “We are ecstatic to bring Festival of Trees back to its in-person format, including the gala and auction,” said Jane McGuire, Executive Director of Hospice of Redmond in a release. “Festival of Trees is an annual holiday tradition many Central Oregonians look for- Geoff Folsom/Spokesman photo FILE- The 29 trees at the Hospice of Redmond Festival of Trees on dis- play in 2017. ward to each year. We cannot wait to see all the beautiful faces we’ve missed over the past two years.” Festival of Trees has been a Central Oregon tradition for 38 years. The event helps fund many of the nonprofit’s hos- pice and palliative care services and is their most significant source of fundraising each year. Due to safety concerns amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Hospice of Redmond trans- formed Festival of Trees into Tour of Trees over the past two years. The event change allowed people to visit deco- rated trees at local businesses throughout Central Oregon in person or online while partic- ipating in the auction via an online format. This year, the event will re- turn to its traditional format with in-person viewing at the Deschutes County Fair- grounds, a formal gala and a live auction. To build excitement for the holiday season and upcoming festival, several of the trees that will be auctioned will be on display throughout downtown Redmond. Hospice of Redmond is ac- cepting tree decorator and sponsor applications through Oct. 15. Tree decorators will decorate at the Fairgrounds on Friday, Dec. 2. The community is in- vited to come to the fairgrounds for a free viewing of the trees on Saturday, Dec. 3. The gala and live auction will be held later that evening, and the trees will be delivered to the winning bid- ders on Sunday, Dec. 4. Funds raised at Festival of Trees make it possible for Hos- pice of Redmond to provide terminally ill people and their families services not covered by Medicare or private insur- ance. These services include bereavement counseling, the Transitions program for people with life-limiting illnesses, and Camp Sunrise, an annual grief camp for children throughout Central Oregon.
