Festival of Trees


http://youtu.be/RGO7jYF6Zog
  This is an annual fundraiser for Caroline Hospice House.  The Caroline Hospice House
provides care for dying patients.  This fundraiser includes decorating Christmas trees, touring Christmas trees, and auctioning off trees to raise money for the organization.  The Town of Port Royal always buys a tree, and I help decorate the tree with child-made ornaments.  This last week has been getting ready for the tree decorating.  This year the tree display will be down the street at The Shed.  I'm taking 2nd and 3rd graders that made the ornaments to decorate and see the trees.  We will be going on Dec. 6.  This is the first time the students will get to see the tree they decorate.

 I want the students to see there are many ways and places that art is used.  There are many reasons to make art also like raising money for hospice care.

Four students helped me decorate and create this video.  Thanks to Eliana, Alan, Mackenzie, and Skylar.
