SANDY SPRINGS, GA — Riverwood International Charter School’s Baseball team is again selling premium Fraser Fir Christmas trees for its annual fundraiser. Riverwood’s Lady Raider Softball Team is also selling fresh wreaths. Customers are invited to order trees and wreaths online where they can also request home delivery for all items. After ordering online, they can opt to select their tree at the tree lot Nov. 29-Dec. 2, or the team will select one for them. Purchasers are encouraged to come early for the best selection.

“For over 25 years, Riverwood Baseball has been selling the finest Christmas trees in Sandy Springs," Riverwood Baseball Coach Trey Henson said. "We have many customers who have been with us for all of those 25+ years. That says a lot about the quality and service our players and families strive to provide. We are quite a local tradition.”

Riverwood baseball players and parents volunteer at the tree lot, helping customers select the fresh trees that they ordered, cutting the trunks, and loading them onto cars and trucks. They also deliver trees for a small fee. Riverwood does not anticipate having inventory to sell to walk-up customers, so online orders are encouraged. Trees can be selected and picked up at Riverwood International Charter School, 5900 Raider Drive in Sandy Springs.
