“Lights of Gratitude Christmas Tree Extravaganza” is a special event creating a magical Christmas for several NC Military Families! We will be donating these fully decorated Christmas Trees to 20 very deserving military families. These donated trees will be decorated by local community groups, such as businesses, civic organizations, school groups, church groups, individual families, etc.

The “Lights of Gratitude" will be open to the public for viewing and voting on their favorite decorated Christmas Trees.  The 20 beautifully decorated Christmas Trees will be placed all around the venue creating an enchanting atmosphere. 

Admission is Free.   Donations are Welcome. 

For a $5 Donation, you will receive 5 tickets to vote on your favorite trees.  The top three winners, as voted on by the public, will be presented with 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Prize Ribbon.  We will also have a panel of judges vote on “Best of Show”!
