Christmas Wreath Fundraiser at Red-Robin Christmas Trees

Our Scouts were busy last week selling Christmas Wreaths by order, and at Red-Robin Christmas Trees.

Thanks to Gerry Redmond of Red-Robin Christmas Trees (and maple syrup) for allowing us to sell at the farm during their popular annual Newfoundland dog event. The dogs were great at hauling trees and kids around, and were extremely well behaved.

Gerry and his staff were very friendly and accommodating, and offer a fun family-oriented Christmas Tree U-cut. Find them at 383 Route 616 (Keswick Ridge Road), or call at 506-470-5121.

Thanks to Ian Manning for snapping this photo of our efforts. Good luck on the MCFT Student Council fundraiser!

We still have wreaths for sale, but they will likely be gone by tomorrow. Talk to one of our members if you would like to buy one.
