The festive Christmas atmosphere returns to Estevan this November with the St. Joseph's Hospital Foundation's (SJHF) 4th annual "Festival of Trees", presented by Enbridge.

The fourth year brings a fresh new twist on the popular event, incorporating four major events and two special attractions over a three day period from November 18-20.

"We really wanted to have this event be a 'festival'," expressed Becky Conly, SJHF Executive Director. "We had a vision four years ago to have a full Festival of Trees with different events that everyone can partake in across all different price ranges."

"We believe that every single person in southeast Saskatchewan will be able to afford to be there and say 'I was at the Festival of Trees'."

The marquee event of the festival will once again be the fundraising dinner with the theme of 'Christmas Movie Magic'. Also this November, the people of Estevan will be able to kick off their blue suede shoes and enjoy the music of "The King".

"We are so proud to announce that we have secured our entertainment headliner: Rory Allen," adds Conly. "He's a world-class entertainer and Elvis Presley tribute artist. His incredible show has been extremely well-received by even the most faithful Elvis fans and friends."

Over the past three years, well over $150,000 has been raised for the SJHF with the 'Festival of Trees' fundraiser.
