The Fort Leavenworth (Kansas) Spouses’ Club is excited to be hosting the second annual Wreath and Tree Event Dec. 11, 2024, at the Frontier Conference Center at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Doors open at 5:30 pm for a cocktail hour, followed by the meal and wreath and tree auction.

This event is open to the public, so you do not need to be a member of the club to attend. Spouses and friends are welcome.

The evening will offer live music, a cash bar and more than 30 wreathes and trees up for grabs in the auction.

If you haven’t been to a wreath-and-tree event, you are in for a real treat. Each wreath or tree has its own theme and will be full of goodies.

In the past there have been wine advent trees, bourbon trees, gift card trees, and so much more.

The event offers a great way to finish up some holiday shopping while helping a good cause, with proceeds going into the club’s welfare fund to be given out in the spring in the form of grants and scholarships.

The Spouses’ Club looks forward to seeing you Wednesday night.
