If you want to buy a Christmas tree from Winnona Park Elementary this Saturday, Dec. 1st, you’ll have to set your alarm clock. The lot opens at 9am and the school’s website warns “Come early in the morning to purchase your holiday tree. There are a limited number so get here early!

The city of Decatur’s events list has this description…

Winnona Park Elementary School will host its annual Christmas Tree Sale in the school parking lot. The trees, fresh Frasier firs, will be delivered on the day of the sale from Banner Elk, North Carolina. Prices range from $55 for a seven-foot tree, $65 for an eight-foot tree, and $75 for a nine-foot tree. A portion of your purchase is tax deductible. Trees are sold on a first-come, first-served basis. For more information, contact Leah Vaughan, 404-377-7578. [hattip: InDecatur]

I can barely get up that early on the weekend, let alone get in the car and be somewhere at that time.  Any suggestions on other school tree sales around Decatur?
