The Fayette

County Board of Realtors® put together its seventh annual Noel November

Celebration of Trees in Tyrone last weekend.

The Barn was

decorated in blinking Christmas lights and filled with 75 Christmas trees,

wreaths, wall hangings and centerpieces.

They were decorated

and donated by various Realtors® as well as mortgage companies and

community organizations.

David Edmondson

and Michaele Gatheridge served as co-chairs and enlisted the choirs from

Fayetteville, Peachtree City and Tyrone elementary schools.

Other choirs

included the Sandy Creek High School, the Fayette Youth Chorale and the

Children's Choir, Christ's Church at Whitewater. The Barn was filled with

holiday music throughout the day.

Refreshments

were donated by various restaurants and supermarkets.

Chip Young

donated the use of The Barn, Sykes Moving & Storage for delivery of

the trees and Bill MacDonald served as the evening auctioneer.

All 75 Christmas

items were sold at the evening auction and will probably net a total of

nearly $30,000.

The funds will

be donated to The Fayette Youth Protection Home, the Fayette County School

Mentoring Program, the Fayette Family YMCA, the Fayette Senior Services

and the Joseph Sams School.
