FOLEY - Businesses, organizations and individuals are invited to help “light up” Heritage Park by decorating a live tree to be enjoyed by park visitors during the Christmas season. Merchants or local groups are encouraged to participate by selecting a theme to promote their business or organization - or just to celebrate the season.

Live trees are provided by the city. The trees should be set up and decorated for display in Heritage Park by Wednesday, Dec. 2, in time for judging on Thursday, Dec. 3. Trees will be judged on originality, creative use of materials and overall appearance. Winners will be announced on Facebook, as there will not be an official program at Christmas in the Park this year due to COVID-19. The trees will remain up during the month of December to be enjoyed by park visitors.

Entry forms including criteria for the tree decorating contest may be downloaded at www.visitfoley.org, www.cityoffoley.org (homepage) or requested by emailing fmckinney@cityoffoley.org or calling the city of Foley at 251-943-1200.
