December 2nd - 4th, 2010

The Festival of Giving Trees is a four day event designed to raise money for the East Longmeadow Food Bank & Pioneer Valley Christian School while enjoying the sights, sounds and tastes of the Holiday.

This four day event is designed to raise financial support for the Food Bank in East Longmeadow and Pioneer Valley Christian School while enjoying the sights and sounds of the Holiday season.

Come and enjoy the beauty and creativity of many custom-designed and decorated Christmas Trees donated by various local businesses, civic groups, organizations and individuals.  All trees will be available for drawing.

The public viewing culminates Saturday evening with a Christmas Gala where you may come and taste the delights of the Holiday provided by area restaurants as you stroll through a wonderland of trees listening to the sounds of the season, participate in a gingerbread house competition, register for various drawings of Christmas gift baskets as well as the trees. 

Entertainment will be provided by the local Pioneer Valley Christian School Choir and "Memories Big Band", an impressive 19 piece ochestra, that will bring a distinctive sophistication to the Christmas Season. It will certainly be a wonderful memory for everyone to enjoy. Click here to learn more about Memories Big Band.
