TEAM, Wesley Village to host festival of trees, craft fair in Shelton

10th annual event planned

I snapped this photo at last year's preview reception at Wesley Village. All of the trees were beautifully decorated.

SHELTON – The 10th annual Festival of Trees and Wesley Village Craft Fair will be held from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Nov. 23 and 24 at Wesley Village, 580 Long Hill Ave.
The event benefits Volunteer Caregivers at TEAM, Inc. and activity programs for seniors at Wesley Village. 

The two days include activities and fun for the whole family, including the viewing of beautifully decorated themed trees and wreaths donated by area businesses, organizations, and individuals.  Participants may buy raffle tickets for the chance to win any of the donated trees.
All drawings will be held on Sunday at 3:15 p.m. Winners do not need to be present. 

The event also features a Holiday Craft Fair, with more than 50 vendors offering a variety of unique gifts and handmade crafts.
A local photographer will be taking photos with Santa from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. both days. 

Throughout the day, there will be a holiday bake sale as well as refreshments available in the Crosby Commons Café.
