about the festival

SMH Festival Of Trees

This year marks a significant milestone for Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital: 75 years of serving our communities with compassion, innovation, and dedication. To honor this anniversary, we are celebrating in a big way by giving back. Proceeds from the 2025 Festival of Trees will benefit CBC (Cancer, Bay Cliff, Community Action), a nonprofit organization that directly supports the Cancer Society & local cancer patients, Bay Cliff Health Camp, and this year’s community charity, Delta Schoolcraft Community Action.

We are excited to invite you to participate in this year’s 7th Annual Festival of Trees, happening from December 5–13 in the beautiful Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital Atrium. Year after year, the local business creativity and generosity have brought this holiday tradition to life, turning it into a cherished community event.

The festival will once again showcase a stunning display of holiday trees, packages, and getaways donated by local businesses, community groups, and individuals like you. Guests will enjoy the enchantment of the season while knowing their participation supports local healthcare and essential community services. The raffle drawing will be streamed live and will happen at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, December 13.

We truly appreciate your continued partnership in making a positive difference for our patients, their families, and the broader community. We are honored to have your partnership as we celebrate 75 years of caring for the people in our region, and now, through CBC, giving back in a new and meaningful way.

5 out of 5 stars

The care that was provided by The nurses (Cindy, Felicia Ruth) and staff was exceptional. The entire staff was very friendly and made you feel welcome. We received a call from Felicia the next day to check on my husband to check his pain level and do a follow up. The surgery area from check in to check out was well organized, clean, and up to date. Thank you to all of you for what you do so well and everything beyond your normal duties.

In my 70 years of experience, with numerous encounters in every aspect of health care, Dr. Niemela is by far the best. The treatment I received from him and his staff was excellent. The entire staff at Schoolcraft are at the top!
