It was another successful year for the Rochelle Christmas Tree Festival as the 10th annual event raised $1,217 for the Community Action Network.
24 decorated tabletop trees, wreaths, centerpieces, and holiday gift baskets were on display last week at City Hall during the silent auction. Bids were taken until 6:30 yesterday evening.
The Christmas items were donated by local businesses along with community and service groups in Rochelle.
The Old Fashioned Christmas walk continues today in dowtown Rochelle for area residents to enjoy.
