NEWS RELEASE
GUELPH YMCA-YWCA
*************************
Get yours before its gone! Beautiful Nova Scotia Balsam Christmas trees are ready to adorn your home this season. Don’t be disappointed because they are sold out (which will happen very soon).

Church of the Apostles (St. James and St. Matthias) and the Guelph YMCA have been in partnership, organizing, selling and sharing the profits since 2013.

The project is in support of Guelph Y youth programs and the Church's environment and social justice projects. All volunteers are in festive spirits, and are working towards a sell-out season!

During off-times, customers are welcome to get assistance from the member services desk. Debit and credit can be processed at the member services desk.

The hours of outdoor sellers are:

  • Monday-Friday 5 to 8 p.m., 
  • Saturday 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., 
  • Sunday 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. 

Small trees are $25, suitable for children to decorate, for apartments, or to set on table tops. Large trees are $40, and range in height from approx 5 feet to 8.5 feet.

Both groups are very humbled by so many of the sales being from return customers who have now made it a tradition to get their tree in support of our projects. We hope new customers will drop by to begin their own tradition because it is a perfect way to compliment the holiday season. 

And, remember to sign up with the Children's Foundation to recycle your tree. You will have then supported a third community group and the tree will be turned into mulch which makes a tree's life cycle complete at treesfortots.ca.
