PORT ANGELES — Although the Teddy Bear Tea is sold out, tickets are on sale for other events at the Festival of Trees in Port Angeles.
The festival will be Friday through Sunday at the Vern Burton Community Center, 308 E. Fourth St.
Tickets can be purchased at the Olympic Medical Center Foundation, 928 Caroline St., across from OMC; by phoning 360-417-7144; or by emailing contact@omhf.org.
Now in its 21st year, the festival is a fundraiser for the foundation and the Port Angeles Exchange Club.

The whole shebang
The trees often include gifts or other items.
They will be auctioned during Friday’s Festival of Trees Gala, which includes a gourmet buffet dinner and dance.
