Businesses, non-profit organizations, and civic groups may reserve a spot to participate by decorating a tree. This year’s theme is “Candy Canes on Library Lane.” You must provide your own tree and decorations. Tree decorating runs from November 17 through November 30 at all five branches. Holiday tree winners will be determined by a team of selected judges.
Contact your local branch library if you have questions about participating in the holiday tree decorating event.
Celebrate with Us!
The five branch locations of the Hancock County Library System and The Library Foundation of Hancock county are pleased to present the 29th Annual HOLIDAY TREE CELEBRATION.
Visit each of our branch libraries at the HOLIDAY TREE CELEBRATION to view our community-decorated holiday trees and get pictures with Santa:
