North Battleford, SK - Battlefords Union Hospital (BUH) Foundation’s Festival of Trees is celebrating its 25th Anniversary and are excited to announce a new Silver Sponsor of $2500. The Festival of Trees is a tradition within The Battlefords and will see some changes due to COVID-19 restrictions and guidelines, but will once again kick-off the Christmas season starting November 16th – December 4th, 2020.
The new Silver sponsor, Swanson Gryba & Company, Chartered Professional Accountants has been a longtime supporter of Festival of Trees and decided to increase their support level this year to the Silver level. Greg Gryba and Garth Swanson, partners and owners shared, “We were happy to be able to increase our support of Festival of Trees and felt that the $2500 donation reflects nicely the importance of the 25th Anniversary of this event. We both believe it is important to support our community and enhancing healthcare at BUH means helping family, friends and neighbours!”
The theme of 2020 Festival of Trees is “Merry & Bright” and will provide a tour of The Battlefords and all things Christmas. Rather than being held at one location, the beautifully decorated trees, wreathes and accent pieces will be on display and for sale throughout The Battlefords at various businesses and sponsor locations. This provides everyone an opportunity to safely view and bid on these items, as well as support their local businesses.
You may follow the 2020 Festival of Trees “Merry & Bright” Christmas tour on BUH Foundation’s website, buhfoundation.com and through BUH Foundation’s Facebook page. Check out the current funds raised as the “Merry and Bright” train tour chugs its way through The Battlefords as funds are raised!

Funds raised from the 2020 Festival of Trees will support the new capital campaign for BUH Foundation, “Diagnostic Detectives: Solving your Health Mysteries.” This campaign will raise funds for new equipment and technology for the lab at BUH. Lab tests and their corresponding results are an integral part of diagnosing patients and providing the proper course of treatment. The dedicated lab team works behind the scenes to provide results quickly and efficiently to help provide the best care possible. The new equipment will capitalize on the knowledge and skills of the lab team and ensure they have the best to provide the best.
