about the festival

SMH Festival Of Trees

Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital (SMH) invites you to participate in the magic of the Festival of Trees. The festival opens Friday, December 6th, and runs for nine days, ending Saturday, December 14th. The Festival of Trees is a holiday-themed event with proceeds from the sale of raffle tickets and an online auction for necessary medical equipment. Donations to the annual fund help deliver close-to-home quality healthcare and specialty services to our rural residents. The event’s focal point is the display and sale of spectacular holiday trees, wreaths, gift certificates, getaways, merchandise, and more donated by businesses and community groups. The raffle drawing will be at 2 p.m. on Saturday, December 14th, streamed live on the Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital Facebook page.

The festival will include in-person viewing, Family Day, and this interactive website, which allows visitors to view all trees, wreaths, and prizes from home.

This year’s online auction will feature fully decorated Christmas trees, getaways, and prize packages. Bids can be placed online until December 14th at 2:00 p.m. Use the “Auction List” with quick links to your favorite items!

What makes the Festival of Trees so special? One reason is the fantastic support and generosity we receive from our businesses and the entire community. An event like this would not be possible without all of our sponsors.  Enjoy the website!

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.

It's always a pleasant visit when see I Dr. Hoevee and this was no exception. And shout out to Clio who is also great!
Very thorough in explaining and seemed like he generally cared
Knowledgeable, Quick & Personable
Dr. Vix and Dr. Foltz are proactive and reactive. They jump into action and get you the care you need right away. There is no waiting periods regardless of shift change or time of the day. They are attentive and efficient. I only wish we had more physicians like them at transfer hospitals. We certainly receive the best care at SMH with the ER staff and nurses.
Always willing to listen and develop plan that works for me. Excellent care and explanations - very positive experience!

We were just in the ER for my wife with back pain. Everyone was absolutely wonderful. All of the staff were in checking on my wife. This was one of the best hospital experiences we have ever had.

Listens, Explains, Pleasant, On time
Dr. Ranier did a tonsilectomy for our daughter. He and his staff were so kind and caring that our daughter fell in love with them all
I met Dr. Vix in the Emergency Room and he is the best doctor I've ever seen. His bedside manner is so kind, gentle, amd reassuring. He took his time and really made me feel listened to. He explained his treatment decisions and logic clearly, and left room to ask questions. He made sure that I understood and agreed with it before doing anything. He was very kind, and he and all the staff were very caring about my comfort while waiting.
I've been very pleased so far working with Dr Bambach, and really the whole staff at Schoolcraft.
Dr houve is great so is his nurse Cleo
Doctor Hoeve is very compassionate and very thorough. He listens and answers all of your questions. Never rushes through the appointments. We are fortunate to have him here in Manistique.
Very professional,friendly and caring. Made my stay very comfortable.
Excellent Doctor
Listened to my concerns and gave me options to help with my problems
Simply the best!!
I had my first visit with Andrew Anderson. He was very knowledgeable and took time to answer all my questions. He was up on all new meds for my condition and side effects. Definitely a good experience.
