Donate a decorated Tree, Wreath or Gift Package!

     You are invited to participate in the 35th Annual Festival of Trees & Trains. Each year the Paramount Woman’s Association and community volunteers, like you, transform the historic Paramount theater into a magical wonderland filled with sparkling holiday trees and decor, spectacular train layouts and exciting local entertainment. 
 We look forward to displaying YOUR talents at this year’s Festival.  Your item will be seen by over 16,000 visitors and will be sold at silent auction (unless you choose to purchase the item back). There is no charge or fee to “enter” an item into the Festival.  This year, the theme for decorators is "All That Glitters" - a fun theme with so many options!
