ASHWAUBENON, WI (WTAQ) – A Green Bay couple has been selected to donate a tree for the Packers 13th annual Festival of Lights at Lambeau Field.
The tree will come from the yard of Joe and Jan Monday.
The couple has been living at their Green Bay residence for 45 years.
They have been decorating the now 45-foot tall tree for years, but now it is too tall.
The new temporary home for the tree will be on Harlan Plaza and will be decorated with more than 10,000 lights for the event on Saturday, December 1st.
The Festival of Lights is hosted by the Packers and Festival Foods.
The event will begin at 5:00 p.m. in the Lambeau Field Atrium and will feature holiday movies, cartoons, holiday card making and area high school choirs performing holiday music as well as photo opportunities with Santa.
During the event, toys will be collected for Toys for Tots. The lighting of the tree will take place at 6:30 p.m.
