Daviess Community Hospital will host its third annual Festival of Trees on Saturday, November 22nd, from 6 to 11 p.m. at the National Guard Armory, 500 NE 6th Street, Washington.
The holiday-themed gala showcases fully decorated Christmas trees and wreaths donated by individuals, businesses, and community groups, displayed for public viewing and sold during a live auction. A separate silent auction will feature additional items. Proceeds support DCH’s Perinatal Pathways Program.

Doors open at 6 p.m. and a catered dinner by Chastity Fox will be served at 7 p.m., followed by a welcome, information about Perinatal Pathways, and sponsor recognition. The live auction of trees and wreaths will begin at approximately 8 p.m. The silent auction will close just prior to the live auction, with winners announced.
The evening continues with DJ Brandon Humphries and a dessert bar from 9 to 11 p.m. Guests may also enjoy free photos with Santa with digital download links provided after the event, a cash bar provided by Allen and Andrea Brown, and live music performed by Ron Fox.
