URGENT UPDATE: The highly anticipated Festival of Trees returns this week, running from November 21-23, 2023, organized by the Boys & Girls Club of Santa Clarita Valley. This year marks a remarkable 23 years of celebrating holiday spirit, community, and giving.
Starting on Friday, November 21, the festivities kick off with Seniors Day from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., providing a special viewing experience for seniors in a less crowded environment.
