The Kinship Christmas Tree Auction trees

Nice pictures, but it would be helpful to include a list of the businesses where the trees could be viewed, and maybe instructions on how to bid on one, at the business, online, etc. Thanks!

Jason Werling plans to post all the details in a little bit, but I'll give you a preview. The trees are posted at more than 50 businesses around town. Bidding starts at $15. Just walk into the business and write your name, address and bid on a provided sheet of paper. Bidding closes on Dec. 17. At that time, the person with the highest bid gets the tree and all the goodies on it. Many businesses around town have included treats and gifts cards on their trees. The Register's tree at 314 W. Market St. has two eight-week subscriptions to the Register, worth more than $50.

I'll post the list here, but since it's so long, I'll delete it once Jason has his post up.
