MADISON (WITI) -- Each fall, the State of Wisconsin searches for a Christmas tree to be displayed in the Capitol rotunda in December.
Tree donations are based upon requirements listed below:
“The annual display of a Christmas tree in the State Capitol rotunda is a special holiday tradition,” Governor Walker said. “Each holiday season, numerous tourists and visitors enjoy the beauty of our selected Balsam Fir tree.”
Wisconsin Department of Administration staff will meet with potential donors to inspect the tree prior to accepting the donation. The first tree that meets the requirements will be selected. The tree is harvested in November and is brought to the State Capitol in late November to early December.
