The annual Christmas Tree Sale got into full swing on Black Friday! The air was crisp, the sky was blue, the fire was roaring and sales were brisk!

Brian and Joanna from Hollis arrived to buy Tree #1 even before the chainsaw was plugged in! They own Second Avenue Consignment across Route 101A on Paul's Way. Apparently they have been eyeing our trees all week and will be back to get a second one for their home.

Tree #2 went home with Roberts family from Amherst. Upon arrival they went straight to the back of the lot to pick-out a still wrapped tree. As Mr. Roberts explained, they love the surprise of not knowing what the tree will look like until they get home. The Roberts family has been buying their Rotary trees this way for years and have never been disappointed!

Milford Lion Kevin Drew dropped by to pick-out a Rotary Christmas tree that will adorn the Milford Bandstand on The Oval. Each year the Milford Lions Club takes on the challenge of decorating the Oval for the holiday festivities and they do a fantastic job along with some help from Milford's Fire and Public Works Departments.
