So pretty.. Very soothing,\u201d she said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>McAdoo is now a grandmother, and enjoys watching her granddaughters open their gifts because of the excitement. It might only by mid-November, but this event truly begins to lead the community into the festivities leading up to that excitement. Additionally, this event brings many ideas into decorations and gift ideas for loved ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the auctioned items during this year\u2019s festival will be wreaths, trees, and larger festive decorations with aesthetics for every family household to enjoy. Some of the themes include old-timey Christmas, some very artistic and unique portrayals, as well as some pretty well-known sports and video game references.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Christmas wreaths also feature the same themes. While the Auction will be online, there is also an in-person Christmas Market, where these Auction items can be viewed, as well as some smaller decorations on a separate side of the market. This local is a Christmas Market, where many items will be on sale on from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on&nbsp; Saturday. The market will feature repurposed Christmas gifts and Market Food goods from Harvest Hays.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More information can be found below.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Festival of the Trees Online Auction:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cbo.io\/app\/public\/bidapp\/festivaloftrees\/auction\">Recycled Reindeer Market Featuring the Festival of the Trees | ClickBid Mobile Bidding<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Recycled Reindeer Market is located at 229 W 10th St, Hays, KS 67601. If the Home Event Center is closed, the event will still be open during the times listed above. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other events to take notice of coming up are The Arc of the Central Plain\u2019s Soup Cook-Off event. It is planned for Thursday at the Home Event Center. Those benefits will go to the Buffalo Adventures, specifically the Special Olympics USA Games.
