The Schuylkill County Historical Society is presenting its annual tree-decorating contest, with entries from local historical groups and other nonprofit organizations. Votes from visitors will determine the winner.
The trees will be on display at the society at 305 N. Centre St., Pottsville, beginning Friday, Nov. 8.
Visitors can vote as many times as they want for their favorite tree through Friday, Jan. 10. Each vote costs $1, and each participating organization will receive the proceeds from its tree’s votes.
The society is also seeking Schuylkill County-oriented memorabilia for its own tree.
Society hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesday through Friday. In November and December it is also open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The society will be open from noon to 6 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7, for the Pottsville Business Association’s Cookie & Cocktail Crawl.
For further information, call 570-622-7540.
