We were involved with Scouts Canada for a long time and our group had a major fundraiser of running a Christmas tree lot at the local community center. The tennis courts are transformed when a little trailer is hauled onto the lot followed by a big truck filled with trees that the Scouts and their families unload into their "holiday location". It is a pleasant way to raise money. The customers are happy getting their trees and are glad to support Scouting. The kids get a real sense of accomplishment while working for their goals. They learning about trees, sales, making change and they enjoy drinking a lot of Hot Chocolate. We still get a fresh tree from there each year. Here is a picture from our Christmas Village scene where we have own little miniature tree lot.
