Festival of Trees at Custer State Park Visitor Center 11-29-2021

Note:  Bring handmade wooden ornaments for our tree in Custer State Park Visitor Center to the SHOP ON WOOD AVE on Saturday Nov 27, 2021 from 9 am to 10 am.

The following message was sent out on November 22, 2021:

All - we have the opportunity to share our handmade wooden ornaments with everyone who comes to the Visitor's Center in Custer State Park during December.   [Custer State Park Visitor Center is located at the junction of US Hwy 16A and Wildlife Loop Road.  It is closest to Hermosa.]

So, bring your handmade wooden ornaments to our "Shop on Wood Ave" on Saturday November 27th between 9 am and 10 am.  Rick and Bob will be there to collect them.  We will hang them on our tree that we will put in the Visitor's Center next week.  They will remain on the tree until Jan 6, 2022.    If you want the ornaments returned to you, put your name on the back. 

We plan to put our RCWA sign by the tree, with some brochures, plus some wooden toys around the bottom of the tree.  If you are curious about the Festival of Trees, a flyer from the park is attached.  Ok, so get to cutting, and we'll see you on Saturday at the Shop on Wood (910 Wood Ave).  Thanks.  Bob and Rick

On Monday morning, November 29. 2021, Rick, Ron, Kathie and Bob traveled over the rivers and through the woods to the Visitor's Center with the tree and ornaments,  to set up our tree.  The tree will be there until the first week of January.
