Area residents can still view the Christmas trees as part of the Parade of Trees throughout this week. The trees are located at the Britton Area Events Center. Pictured on the left is the tasty looking tree decorated with sweet treats put up by Little Sprouts Daycare and the fun Frosty Tree offered by Marshall County 4-H. The Britton-Hecla Funtastic Club decked their tree out with gnomes for the occasion. The trees will be up until Dec. 31.
