Mark your Calendar


Mark your calendar for December 4-10, 2008! Planning is under way for the Fifth Annual Johnston County Festival of Trees. “A Merry Christmas to All” is the theme for this year’s event which is a “Gift to the County”. The Festival of Trees has been a fundraiser for Keep Johnston County Beautiful to help fund projects for this non-profit organization organized in 1978. Currently a historical survey of the county’s architecture is being documented and will be published in a book including pictures and information. This and other projects benefit from the Festival of Trees.
We are currently seeking sponsors, decorators and volunteers for this year’s event. Please note the links on this website to follow to express your interest in being part of this year’s event! You can also use the contact us link for any questions you may have.
We look forward to seeing you in December!

Chairman

2007 Thanks - Festival of Trees Chair


Thanks to all who participated in this wonderful ‘Gift to the County: A Johnston County Christmas’. Sixty beautiful trees brightened the Medical Mall, filling the space with a lovely aroma of pine during the Fourth Annual Festival of Trees. Local entertainers could be heard, sharing their talents through the music of the season. Smiling faces of gleeful children as they whispered their secret gift wishes to Santa were seen. These are the sights and sounds of a joyful Holiday Season.
I look forward to continuing this fine tradition in 2008 and I encourage you to contact us through this website if you would like to be a part of it. We need good volunteers to plan and organize, to host, and sponsors for the trees and decorations. Plan now to be part of this wonderful event!
May you all have a safe and healthy holiday season!Jayne M. Cubilla 2007 Festival of Trees Chair
