A Few of Our Favorite Things...






Residents and associates of Juniper Village at Brookline teamed up to create a magical “The Sound of Music” themed Christmas tree for the 20th annual Centre County United Way Festival of Trees, December 12-14. Funded by our rehabilitation and skilled care community, a nearly 8-foot Tannenbaum tree was adorned with visions straight from the classic, “My Favorite Things”, including raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens, warm woolen mittens, and more! Each ornament was carefully crafted with love, from the brown paper packages tied up with strings that were piled high beneath the tree, to the tree topper itself—sheet music fashioned into an intricate bow.


Festival of Trees is held in conjunction with the annual Bellefonte Victorian Christmas. Community members pay a nominal fee to view the trees decorated by area businesses and organizations. Trees are voted on for cash rewards, and proceeds benefit the 34 Centre County United Way partner agencies. Additionally, the event is one that is a highly-anticipated holiday outing for Juniper residents.
