50 years of selling Christmas trees for charity in New Canaan

The Exchange Club is holding its annual Christmas Tree Sale benefiting local charities at Kiwanis Park. Not only is this a great opportunity to avoid crowds and buy your Christmas tree and wreaths right in New Canaan, but also a fun event for your children as well. Proceeds go to the awareness and prevention of child abuse and many other local charities.

The Exchange Club transforms Kiwanis Park into a Christmas village. We'll have over 1,300 trees including Fraser Firs and Balsams - along with a variety of wreaths, roping, tree stands and other seasonal merchandise.

Santa will be in Kiwanis Park on weekends 11am-3pm. Bring your kids to meet Santa Claus and find out whether they have been naughty or nice! We have a mailbox for letters addressed to Santa and Santa personally replies (don't forget to include return address).

Take a ride around the neighborhood on the Old Faithful Classic Fire Engine. Rides available on Saturdays 11am-1pm Fun for the whole family.

And finally, join us on Saturday December 2 at 5pm for the annual lighting of the Christmas tree in Kiwanis Park. There will be hot chocolate, snacks, and singing of Christmas carols.
