One of the activities during the 10 days of Christmas in Junction City involved the Festival of Trees Saturday night at the Geary County Historical Museum.

Coordinator Jan Gray noted that businesses and individuals donated items such as decorated wreaths and Christmas trees. "We are taking silent bids on those and it all benefits the museum." Gray called the turnout fabulous.

Thirty items were donated for auction at the event, including also a quilted wall hanging.
