The fourth Noel November, a highlight of the Christmas season for the community and one of the Realtors' major community service projects each year, will take place in the recreation department building, located at the

Kiwanis Fields on Redwine Road in Fayetteville.

"We are hoping for a large turnout of area residents for this year's celebration," said Michaele Gatheridge, Hayhurst's co-chairman.

A public showing of the decorated trees and wreaths will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., followed by their auction that night. The trees and wreaths featured in Noel November are contributed by local businesses, organizations

and individuals. In addition, the festival has always attracted a large group of sponsors who help with the cost of putting it together.

Admission for the day's events is free; for general information on Noel November or ticket information for the evening's auction, call the Fayette County Board of Realtors at

770-461-2401 .

Each year, all proceeds are donated to a worthwhile local non-profit organization, and last year the Fayette County Board of Realtors contributed $10,000 to furnish the Asden Johnson Youth Protection Home in Brooks.

The goal for this year's event is the raise a minimum of $10,000 to provide play equipment for the same facility, the Asden Johnson Home.
