The Mid-Columbia Health Foundation’s Festival of Trees is coming up on the first weekend of December, and there is still times for groups who would like to decorate a tree for the auction to get signed up. Foundation Executive Director Amanda Evans says they have 12 trees so far, but there is plenty of room for more. Sign-ujp information is available at mcmc.net/fot. The gala and auction will be on Friday, December 2 at 6 p.m. at the Civic. Tickets are $20, and are available by calling 541-296-7275. Proceeds benefit nursing scholarship, patient assistance, and the Celilo Cancer Center fund. There will also be a free community open house to view the trees on Saturday, December 3 from 9 a.m. to noon at the Civic.
