The Badlands Community Facility was a buzz of activity Friday night, December 2, as young and old were there to welcome in the season at the inaugural Trail of Trees.
They decked the halls of the BCF with area families, groups and businesses decorating trees. There was lots of hot chocolate and sweets, good cheer and even an appearance by Santa Claus.
The decorated trees will be displayed until December 15 when they will be distributed to area families that might not be able to afford a tree this holiday season.
