WENATCHEE — Christmas trees at home can be full of eclectic personal ornaments in a mish-mash style that everyone loves dearly. But there’s also a way to add a luxurious designer tree to impress your guests for the whole holiday season through the silent auction at the Numerica Festival of Trees.
Numerica Performing Arts Center (NPAC) presents a weekend of free public viewings with a fundraiser bidding for decorated trees in different sizes, as well as wreaths, which are also beautiful just to tour and admire.

With multiple failed attempts, Stilwater said, “It’s the little train that couldn’t.” “We’re designers, not engineers,” replied Kearny.
