What a beautiful work of art embellishes the Avenue of the Fountains: The 2015 Poinsettia Tree; at 14 feet tall it is really impressive.

To date we have over 100 donors; that’s good, but we’re falling behind last year’s mark of 215. Where are you all? We have 212 poinsettia plants that will be available to donors when the tree is dismantled in January; don’t think that it’s too late. Donors who have given to the project the last week will be placed on the 2016 tree.

Please go on the Fountain Hills Cultural & Civic Association website at http://www.fhcultural-civic.org/ -- click on the Poinsettia Tree; fill out the form and pay through Pay Pal or mail the form with a check in the amount of $20 to FHCCA, mail to Fountain Hills Cultural and Civic Assn., P.O. Box 18254, Fountain Hills, AZ 85269.

While you’re viewing the Poinsettia Tree just cross the street and visit Gridleys, they have forms, or Sami Fine Jewelry. Kay Kinder’s Fountain Fashions in Bashas’ shopping center on La Montana and Palisades Blvd. also has forms. Let’s make 2015 the best Poinsettia Tree project ever.
