Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade to Open its Thoma Bravo Christmas Tree Lot on Nov. 25
‘Tis the season and with good reason! For over 50 years, Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade has been selling Christmas trees to help bring holiday cheer into South Florida homes and to create great futures for Miami-Dade youth. The tradition continues with the Thoma Bravo Christmas Tree Lot at Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade’s Hank Kline Club, open seven days a week, starting Monday, Nov. 25, until trees are sold out. Devoted supporter, Thoma Bravo, is sponsoring the tree lot for the second consecutive year.
To kick off the holiday season, Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade will host a grand opening ribbon-cutting ceremony on Monday, Nov. 25, at 5 p.m. Miami dignitaries, Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade board members, representatives from Thoma Bravo, youth members and Santa Claus himself will attend to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year.
All Fraser fir trees are hand-selected by Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade’s President Alex Rodriguez-Roig in North Carolina and stand 5-feet to 14-feet tall with a starting price of $65. Poinsettias will also be available starting at $15. Shoppers will also have the opportunity to Sponsor-A-Child to help make a positive impact in the life of a youth member.
The Thoma Bravo Christmas Tree Lot will be open on Thanksgiving Day as well as Black Friday. Every Black Friday, Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade sells a tree every 63 seconds.
Proceeds from tree sales and Sponsor-A-Child will benefit Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade’s crucial programs and services at its six Clubs and sites combined including its educational after-school programs, tutoring and homework assistance, STEM, recreation, dance, arts and crafts, mentoring and summer and athletic programs. These programs help children realize their full potential as productive, caring and responsible citizens.
