1. Decorating Times for 2024 – Community Decorating Day is Back! Sunday,

December 1st, starting at 1 pm, all trees must be decorated by 9 pm on Wednesday,

December 4th

. If your tree is not decorated by then the tree will be given to another

group to decorate. All Tree Adoptees will be emailed a map and a tree list by

November 15th, so that you can easily find your tree for decorating.

The Grove is divided up into 5 Areas:

Bosque (B), McClelland East (M/E), McClelland West (M/W),

South Diagonal (S/D), North Diagonal (N/D) and Along the Arbor (A)

2. Find your tree by its number and look for your name on label.

3. Attached to your barrel is a socket plug, this is the power for your tree. Please do

not pull any power from any other trees. The plugs are active so once you plug in

your lights, they should be on. Please do not lay lights in the top of barrel because

the barrel fills up with water during rain and shorts out your lights.

- - - USE OUTDOOR RATED LED LIGHTS ONLY - NO SOLAR TRANSFORMERS - - -

If Lights other than LED are used, your tree will be unplugged and tagged.

4. String your LED lights from the bottom of the tree up. Using black electrical tape

(bring your own or watch for Grove Volunteers), tape over each connection and

open end of cords to prevent rain entry.

5. Be sure all decorations are WEATHER PROOF and securely attached to the tree.

Please do not attach with plastic tie wraps or excessive wire. No ornaments made

of food, dough, biscuits or using Elmer’s Glue or Contact Cement, these are not

weather proof. (We expect rain and wind during December).

6. PLEASE USE CAUTION TO AVOID WALKING IN BETWEEN THE BARRELS AND OVER

ELECTRICAL CORDS.
