Thousands of people walked through the Tannenbaum forest this year.  I was able to work 2 different shifts and got to greet many people as they returned to the forest as part of a family tradition, and to welcome people as they came to enjoy the Tannenbaum forest for the first time.

The forest is always a magical place when it is full of trees, colorful lights, holiday music and people winding their way through the forest path.

Sadly the four weekends passed by too quickly and now it is time to take down all the trees and clean up the Festhalle Barn so it is ready for Winterfest.

Below are some memories of this year – beginning to end.
