Subject: Baker West Holiday Trees Are Back! Let’s Light Up the Neighborhood!
Hi Everyone,
Happy Holidays, Baker West Neighbors!
It’s that time of year again — and we’re excited to keep one of our favorite neighborhood traditions going strong. The Baker West Neighborhood Association invites you to take part in our 18th Annual Holiday Tree Staking and Decorating Event!
Every December, our front yards sparkle with holiday cheer thanks to everyone who joins in. Whether you’re new to the neighborhood or a long-time participant, it’s a fun, easy way to spread some festive spirit and make Baker West look extra magical.
Here’s how it works:
We’ll be offering fresh-cut holiday trees for you to place and decorate in your front yard.
Pickup Date: Saturday, December 6th, between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM
Pickup Location: 2058 Colusa Way
Cost: $32 – tree only; $37 – tree + rebar
To keep your tree standing tall all season, we suggest using a 6-ft piece of rebar and a few zip ties to secure it.
You can order a piece of rebar here or you can grab them ahead of time from Home Depot.
How to order your tree:
We need to place our order soon, so please get your requests and payment in by Friday, November 21st.
Just send me a text or email — whatever’s easiest and then drop off cash or a check and slip it under my doormat. (please text me that you have dropped it off so I know to look for it!)

This event is always a highlight of the season, and it’s even better when everyone participates. Let’s make Baker West shine bright together and keep this 18-year tradition going strong!
See you soon and happy decorating!
Warmly,
Baker West Neighborhood Association
For 18 years, the BWNA has tried to line our streets with outside holiday trees in front of everyone’s houses in the month of December (trying to look festive like Willow Glen neighborhoods). Last year we switched tree suppliers as they were beginning to look “Charlie Brownish” … This year we are again using the same Fuller Tree company and they supply really nice looking trees!
To order a tree, contact Barbara Gaylord barbara@bakerwest.org.
Checks must be received by: Thursday, November 20th
