The money raised supports children. In the past, funds have gone towards the club’s annual Santa Claus parade, which takes place Saturday at 5 p.m. and is marking its 80th anniversary.

Other causes benefiting from tree sales include the Kiwanis Festival of Music, Kiwanis Soccer Complex, Kiwanis Whispering Pines Campground and numerous other local events and activities for kids.

The trees cost $55 for a Scotch pine, $80 for a balsam fir, and Fraser firs cost $80 for trees below six feet tall and $100 per tree taller than that.
