Growing Family Traditions

The Shriners Parade of Trees is a heartwarming holiday fundraiser that blends community spirit, festive fun, and philanthropic giving. Launched in 2022, this raffle-style event invites local businesses and sponsors to donate beautifully decorated Christmas trees, each accompanied by gifts valued at $500 or more. These trees are displayed for the public to admire and enter to win by purchasing $1 raffle tickets — making it a fun and accessible way to support a great cause while potentially taking home a magical holiday prize. It’s also a fantastic opportunity for businesses to gain positive exposure and show their commitment to the community during the giving season.

Quickly becoming a beloved Siouxland tradition, the Parade of Trees is more than just a fundraiser — it’s a festive experience for the whole family. Guests can enjoy delicious food and drinks, listen to performances by local choirs, and soak in the holiday cheer while kids visit with Santa or take part in hands-on crafts. Whether you're donating, attending, or simply buying a few raffle tickets, your involvement helps spread joy while supporting the important work of the Shriners. Come be a part of the magic and community this holiday season!
