โ€˜Tis the Season for Christmas Trees!

Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade Continues Over 35-Year Tradition

November 25, 2015

For more than 35 years, Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade has been selling Christmas trees and wreaths to help bring holiday cheer into many South Florida households. The organization continues this festive tradition starting Monday, Nov. 23 at Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade’s Hank Kline Club, located at 2805 SW 32nd Ave., Miami, FL 33133. The tree lot will be open seven days a week from 9 a.m.–9 p.m. until the trees sell out.

 

One hundred percent of proceeds from the tree and wreath sales will benefit Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade, which serves thousands of boys and girls in Miami-Dade County with positive programs year-round. 

 

The trees, gorgeous Fraser firs hand-selected in North Carolina by Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade’s President Alex Rodriguez-Roig, stand 5 to 14 feet tall with prices starting at $55. Plain and hand-decorated wreaths are also available starting at $35.
