Getting started - the unloading begins.

Throwing the trees out onto the ramp is a bit like bowling (but a lot more strenuous!)

Pulling the trees out of the back of the truck.

There's a lot of carrying on going on!

Some of the team at work opening the trees.

Msgr. arrives with moral support.

There's plenty for all to do!

Carrying the trees from the truck.

Cutting the twine and unwrapping the trees.

Trees are everywhere!

Even the younger set pitches in to help.

Picking up yet another tree from the ramp...

The trees were well protected for their trip down from the mountains, but they must be opened up so the choir's supporters can pick their trees.

Folks begin to arrive, looking for "their" tree.

As the crowd gathers, those that have already found the "right" tree stand by it to make sure that don't loose it!

Setting up the table for the cashier and the CDs and tapes.

Setting up the station where the trees can be trimmed up, or fresh cut if the buyer wants.

The line is beginning to form.

Some of the trees lined up across the back wall of the school.

A few trees being loaded up for the trip home.

Heading for the line to get your tree trimmed up to fit into the stand.

The activity around the cashier's table is really picking up!

Another tree gets a fresh cut...thanks to the many choir family members that helped out!

The line to pay is really getting long!

The cashiers are hard at work!

Our project organizer and one of our Directors discuss the day's events.

Lot's of errands to do!
