10A COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL December 2, 2015 CHAMBER NEWSLETTER Meet Smokey and Obtain Christmas Tree Tag Permits at Special Saturday Event The Cottage Grove Ranger Station will open its doors to the public on Saturday, December 5th, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. for Smokey Bear’s Christmas Tree Jamboree. This special holiday event is a great opportunity for those who would like to get their own Christmas trees from the forest on the Cottage Grove Ranger District. During the event, Smokey Bear will be greeting visitors from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm. The festivities at the station will continue with a decorated tree, holiday music, and sweet treats. To cut a Christmas tree from U.S. Forest Service land, visitors must purchase a Christmas tree tag from a designated ranger station. Each tag costs only $5 and is easy to obtain. The Cottage Grove Ranger Station also issues tree tags and other permits during its regular hours of Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., but will be open for this special event to increase access to these services. In the giving spirit of the season, every fourth grader who brings their free Every Kid in a Park pass or voucher into a ranger station can also receive a free Christmas tree tag. Instructions for obtaining Every Kid in a Park vouchers can be found online at everykidinapark.gov. The Cottage Grove Ranger Station is located in Cottage Grove at 78405 Cedar Park Road, just off of Row River Road. For more information, call the station at (541) 767-5000.
