First Christmas Tree Sighting Expected Next Week Downtown

It's not technically a Christmas tree, but it's close enough. The Village Centre is sponsoring a Thanksgiving and Christmas giving tree downtown to benefit the Menomonee Falls Area Food Pantry.

Yes. Halloween has passed, the election will be over, and it’ll time to open up that dusty jar of holiday cheer for the next few months.

Though most people won’t have their Christmas tree up by Nov. 9, the Village Centre will have its tree up. However, but it’s not technically a Christmas tree; it’s a Menomonee Falls Area Food Pantry Giving Tree.

Tags listing needed items at the pantry will adorn the tree. If you’re feeling generous, you are welcome to take more than one tag. Once you have collected the items requested on the tag, you can drop both the tags and items off at the Village Centre office at the corner of Main Street and Appleton Avenue.
