Over 800 fully lit and decorated trees were auctioned and sold as part of the Primary Childrens Hospital's annual Festival of Trees from December 3 to 6. Members of the 151st Air Refueling Wing, Utah Air National Guard, volunteered at the festival which highlights not only trees, but also offers gingerbread houses, wreaths and handmade candies for sale. All items for the festival are donated for charity.
The trees are decorated and purchased by individuals, families, organizations, businesses and church groups. The sale of the items benefits the Primary Children's Hospital, located in Salt Lake City, and raised over $1.6 million in 2007.
