O Tannenbaum Winter Wonderland Grand Opening Nov. 10 at Tioga County Historical Museum
Beginning November 10, through December 15, O Tannenbaum, the Tioga County Historical Museum’s annual fundraiser and premier holiday showcase, will open at the museum at 110 Front Street in Owego. O Tannenbaum is one of the largest income generating events for the museum, with multiple trees, wreaths, and other items up for silent auction. The museum donates trees and wreaths to participating businesses and individuals, who then decorate the trees, adding their own personal flare or specialty items. All proceeds from the auction directly benefit the museum and help pay for operational expenses throughout the year. Come visit the museum during this wonderful holiday time event. It is fun for all; whether you are a child or just young-at-heart.
