Festival of Trees, Nov. 27-Jan. 10

Mark your calendars for the World of Energy's annual Festival of Trees display and voting contest. Beautifully decorated trees will be on display in the World of Energy, and the public can vote on their favorite. The top three trees that receive the most votes will win a grant for the non-profit of their choice, $2,500, $1,500 and $1,000, respectively. The display is free and open to the public.

Bring canned goods now through December to help build a canned good tree for the Festival of Trees - all donations support the Duke Energy Foundation’s campaign to fight hunger in South Carolina. Collected items will be donated to food banks and feeding programs in Oconee County at the end of the Festival of Trees.

Santa at the World of Energy, Nov. 30

Santa will be at the World of Energy during the Festival of Trees! Bring your own camera and snap a family photo with Santa at the World of Energy between 10 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., Saturday, Nov. 30. Free and open to the public.
