Enjoy a long-standing Jacksonville tradition from a new location as Jacksonville’s annual Festival of Trees has relocated from Woodhaven Hospice to Pathway Services Unlimited. The three-day festival showcases designer Christmas trees, wreaths and other holiday decorations plus live, local entertainment and a gift shop featuring holiday décor, plus cookies and candy handmade by Pathway residents. Additionally, children’s activities, such as Santa letter-writing stations, cookie decorating, holiday décor-making stations, and visits with Santa will be available all three days of the festival. Concessions such as hot dogs, chilli, sloppy Joes and nachos will be available for purchase on-site. The traditional auction of trees, wreaths and centerpieces will be held at the conclusion of the festival on Sunday, Nov. 19, at 2:30 p.m. For more information about Jacksonville’s Festival of Trees, call 479-2300.
