History of the Tucson Arizona Boys Chorus Tree Lot

The Tucson Arizona Boys Chorus Christmas tree lot has a history spanning more than five decades. Chorus parents began the lot as a fundraising effort and as a means to create public awareness for the boys and their organization. The venture continues to develop such that it is one of the largest Christmas tree lots in Arizona.

Proceeds from the sale of trees go to support programs for the choristers. The Chorus Christmas Tree Lot has evolved into a community exchange, where Chorus volunteers provide exceptionally friendly service and convey cheerful holiday greetings to all who are shopping for the perfect Christmas tree.

As Folks stroll about the tree lot, they hear inspirational seasonal songs recorded by the Chorus and even have an opportunity to meet choristers who volunteer their time to help sell Christmas trees. A trademark of the Chorus tree lot is that everyone who assists at the lot, including choristers and their families, board members and alumni, work to create an atmosphere exuding camaraderie and goodwill.

One volunteer remarked "We really will do anything for our customers. Whatever challenges an individual or company comes to us with, somehow we tackle it and succeed. Our customers are genuinely pleased and make a tradition of returning to the Boys Chorus tree lot year after year."

The Tree Lot generates unique publicity, bringing recognition to the entire Tucson community. The tree lot has become another opportunity for the boys to present themselves as goodwill ambassadors to the neighborhoods of Tucson.
