Community Connections' Festival of Trees is a free and family-friendly holiday tradition! Event-goers tour an enchanted forest of Christmas trees and wreaths decorated by our generous sponsors, bid on the creative gifts and festive decorations, and vote for their favorite creations - all while supporting Community Connections' mission to help people with disabilities lead healthy and fulfilling lives in Southwest Colorado.
