Nathan Adelson Hospice and the Pahrump Chamber of Commerce are kicking off the holiday season with two exciting events.

The Festival of Trees will begin Nov. 21, with a tree and wreath decorating party in the convention area of the Pahrump Nugget.

Dec. 1, the daytime hours will be dedicated to the Chamber's annual Pahrump Pum Pum Pum event, followed by the Festival of Trees Gala at 6 p.m., with a live auction of sponsored trees and wreaths.

The gala will be "black tie optional" and feature several entertaining groups.

A silent auction will also be held.

The buffet dinner is offered ($100/plate) with the wine compliments of Bill and Gretchen Loken and the Pahrump Valley Winery. Auctions will begin after dinner with auctioneer Dan Rodriguez.
