This year’s Open House on November 30th will be themed “The Festival of Trees”. President Holly’s vision is to have decorated trees and wreaths available for auction at the Open House to raise money for Headquarters. Our goal is to raise $1,894; but we need your help to reach our goal. If your Club or an individual in your Club would like to create a tree from the list below, volunteer for a committee, and/or create a holiday themed wreath please contact dobalo@njsfwc.org or 732-742-6946 (please leave a message) for complete details.

1. The TREES should be artificial, tabletop with a maximum height of 4 feet with or without lights (battery operated lights). Use your imagination! The trees should be decorated with one of the following themes:
a. Arts & Culture – arts, painting, pottery, crafts, sculpture
b. Arts Performing – anything to do with music, drama, or dance
c. Civic Engagement & Outreach – military, citizenship, Heifer International, police
d. Environment – all decorations made from recycled materials
e. Health & Wellness – doctors, nurses, vitamins, foods/healthy eating, exercise, heart health
f. Advocates for Children – toys, games, kids, puzzles, bubbles
g. Education & Libraries – books, pen/pencils, lunch boxes
h. Federation History – pictures, newspaper article, pins
2. The Wreaths should be decorated with a holiday theme and can be made of any material (live greenery, artificial greenery, branches, cloth etc.).
