PORT ANGELES — The 34th annual Festival of Trees, produced by the Olympic Medical Center Foundation, netted a record $231,000 over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend.
“The event was extremely successful,” Festival Chair Mary Hebert said. “The audience was once again very generous, generating funds for patient care and most importantly for our scholarship program, which was created to improve the workforce shortage at Olympic Medical Center.”
The Festival Opening Ceremonies Presented by the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe kicked off the event on Wednesday night, followed by the annual Gala Presented by First Fed on Friday night, where 46 trees were auctioned or raffled off.
The Senior Breakfast Presented by The Cottages of Sequim was held Friday morning, followed by the Teddy Bear Tea Presented by Erika Ralston Word of Windermere on Saturday.
Family Days presented by The Lodge at Sherwood Village, Sherwood Assisted Living and Fifth Avenue Retirement was held Saturday and Sunday.
