The TaxSlayer Center is currently in search of their 2018 Christmas tree to be displayed in the arena's circle drive throughout the holiday season. The tree will also be featured at the annual Lighting on the Commons Ceremony to be held on Saturday, November 17, 2018.

The TaxSlayer Center will pay for the removal and transportation of the tree and provide four complimentary tickets to a Quad City Storm Regular Season Hockey Game in exchange for the tree donation. The tree should range in height from 20' to 40' and be available for removal now through the week of November 5th. Consideration will be given to size, shape, fullness, ease of removal, and proximity to building. Trees not selected in 2018 will be added to a list of potential trees for future years.

Have the perfect tree? Please contact Kevin Snodgrass via email at ksnodgrass@taxslayercenter.com with subject line 2018 Christmas Tree Donation or at 309-277-1379.  Interested parties should include contact information, location of the tree to be donated, type of tree (if known) and approximate size. Photos of the tree are also welcome.
