    Tree Fest of Children's Books 2006
    Silent Auction

    Each year one of the features of Tree Fest is the silent auction.  A number of decorators allow their creation to be auctioned to the highest bidder in a silent auction.  Visitors can browse Tree Fest and if their favorite tree or wreath is one of those available for auction, they can write a bid in the Tree Fest auction book.  The highest bidder gets to take home the exhibit at the end of Tree Fest.  This feature of Tree Fest not only raises money for the library, but allows visitors to obtain a beautifully decorated tree or wreath for their holiday enjoyment. 

    In 2006 proceeds from the silent auction totaled $610, our highest total ever!  Our thanks go to the decorators who offered their entries for auction and to those visitors who bid on these creatively decorated trees and wreaths.  The trees and wreaths that were auctioned at the close of Tree Fest 2006 are shown below:
