“Stroll through a twinkling wonderland of lights! Live, decorated trees; Breathtaking Nativity scene and seventeen-foot German-style Christmas pyramid, all located in the century-old Festhalle barn.”  Here is a link to the youtube video of the Tannenbaum Forest to give you an idea of what to expect:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEJqlRnnDI8

Dress:  It is inside, but the building has just but a few space heaters, to give the feeling of walking in a forest, so dress warm.

As always, I offered a few photos be donated back to the Tannenbaum Forest/Amana CVB, if you would be interested in donating some images back, please let me know.

Then for your drive home, I will have a list available from the Visitors Center of the best addresses in the area of some beautiful outdoor holiday light displays.

Please RSVP to Amy at [email protected] so I can give a count to the barn for the shoot so they know how many volunteers they need to have stay.

Sincerely,

Amy Mueggenberg
