Scout Christmas Tree Lot at St. Al’s
It’s Christmas tree time again for Scouts & Crew 100 & 8100. Scouts will be selling Christmas trees for their annual fundraiser at the St. Alphonsus church parking lot. The Scouts help customers find the perfect tree, give it a fresh cut, and use their Scouting skills to ensure trees are tied onto cars with proper knots.
Scouts & Crew 100 has been selling Christmas trees in the Ballard area since 1956. Buying a tree at the tree lot is a community tradition, with many local families returning year after year. Proceeds from sales help send the Scouts to summer camp and cover camping trips and Scouts Night Out activities. The Scouts also donate trees to several local churches and a portion of the tree lot proceeds go to the Ballard Food Bank. Visit the Scouts & Crew 100/8100 website: troop100seattle.com.
