The Henderson Optimist Club Christmas tree lot has been a fixture on Dabney Drive for many years. But this year, the community will have one less spot to shop for their annual holiday evergreen – the Optimists won’t be in operation.
Club President Tommy Farmer sent a brief statement to WIZS News, citing “logistical ordering issues” as the reason for not having the tree sale.
“It saddens us to know that many of our loyal customers will be looking for their trees elsewhere,” he stated. “We know that the community looks forward to our traditional tree lot and we apologize for any inconvenience.”
