26th Annual Festival of Trees
Friday, November 21, 2025
The Lake Area Technical College Foundation Festival of Trees is an annual fundraiser to support the mission of “Building a Better Lake Area Technical College.” Proceeds provide opportunities that strengthen students and programs. Last year, the Foundation awarded nearly 450 scholarships totaling over $450,000.
Since 2000, the Foundation has hosted the event on the Friday before Thanksgiving. The Festival is a gala event featuring both Silent and Live auctions. Individuals, businesses, and corporations donate beautifully decorated Christmas trees, wreaths, holiday ensembles, and other unique items for guests to bid on. Each donation adds to the fun and excitement, making this event a crowd favorite year after year!
