It may feel early, but the Sheep River Health Trust (SRHT) is already preparing for Christmas.

The group has put out a call for designs for its 13th annual Avenue of Trees, a holiday tradition where Foothills businesses, groups, and organizations decorate Christmas trees that are later donated to local families in need.

The event also serves as a fundraiser, with proceeds supporting health services, wellness programs, and medical equipment through the SRHT.

The finished trees will be on display at the Best Western Plus Okotoks Inn & Suites from Nov. 17 to Dec. 14.

Visitors can vote for their favourite, with the winning team receiving the Avenue of Trees Fan Favourite Trophy.

The deadline to submit designs is Oct. 31.
