Trees Available for Annual Habitat Fundraiser - October 11, 2007
NORTH ADAMS - Northern Berkshire Habitat for Humanity will hold its annual Christmas Tree Showcase at First Congregational Church on Main Street in Williamstown on Dec. 8 from 1 to 7 p.m. as part of the annual Williamstown Holiday Walk.
The event is one of Habitat’s biggest fundraisers and community events of the year. Last year, more than 145 trees were raffled off. Each year, the creativity of participants grows and some make themed trees. Past themes have been "The Night Before Christmas," birds in paradise, snowflakes and lights, athletics, story time, skiing, apples, toy land and "The Nutcracker."
Members of the community, schools, churches, local businesses and community organizations are invited to purchase miniature artificial trees for $5 each and decorate them for the showcase and raffle. Trees can be purchased in Williamstown at First Congregational Church, the Mountain Goat at 130 Water St.; St. John’s Church (Church School entrance) at 35 Park St., or in North Adams at McClelland’s at 85 Main St., First Baptist Church at 131 Main St. and at the Habitat office at 61 Main St. on Monday through Friday from 9 until noon. For more information, call the Habitat office at 664-4440.
Northern Berkshire Habitat for Humanity is now in its 18th year of helping to provide quality housing to area residents who otherwise would not be able to have a home of their own. It is currently building a home on
Henderson Road in Williamstown. Volunteer crews work Wednesday and Saturday mornings from 9 until noon. All
volunteers are welcome; contact the Habitat office to volunteer. |
