Festival of Trees, Bastrop, Texas



The Family Crisis Center does great work for four counties of Texas. They help with victims of family violence, personal safety, anger management and so much more. This is one of the biggest and most popular of the fundraisers. A time to dress up, bid on wonderful Christmas/Holiday items. There will be 20+ large trees, fully decorated in themes by businesses and individuals that donate them for the occasion. It will be held in the new Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort and Spa just off Highway 71 between Bastrop and Austin.

A wonderful event to help families in our community. Come take part and get a head start on your decorating.
