Non-profits, businesses, families, friends, and individuals are invited to decorate a tree (not real) to display in the primary hallways of the SHAC Community Center. Entry fee is $20. Trees can be table top or up to 7 feet tall. Electricity is available. Be creative! Veterans? Red, white and blue! Restaurant? Recipes and mini cooking utensils. Library? Ornaments made from book pages. Coffee shop? Mini mugs, cocoa packets and tea bags. 

Anyone who comes to SHAC during December and the first half of January can vote on their favorite tree (there is no charge to vote).  The tree that garners the most votes gets 50% of all entry fees. Winner will be announced in mid-January. If you want to sell your tree at this point you are more than welcome to!
