SHOUT OUT: Continuing a 55-year tradition, Washington Township’s volunteer firefighters are selling a wide variety of Christmas trees — seven days a week until Christmas Eve, 10 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. — at their Washington Avenue headquarters.
Also available are wreaths (1-5 feet), grave blankets and other Christmas accessories — along with plenty of netting and twine — as well as metal tree stands and disposal skirts.
Photos with Santa will be taken Dec. 14-15 (Saturday & Sunday), from 1-3 p.m.
There’s also a complimentary BBQ from noon-3 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday.
As an entirely volunteer organization, the Washington Township Fire Department depends on donations. The firefighters, as a result, are dedicated to offering value to those looking for anything from the dense, traditional Balsam, the versatile old-fashioned Douglas or the strong-branched Fraser, to a a four- or five-foot high “Charlie Brown” tree.
The firefighters will also provide the muscle to make sure your tree is loaded properly onto your vehicle.
