There will be no Christmas trees for sale in front of Swarthmore Borough Hall this holiday season.

The Swarthmore and Morton/Rutledge fire companies have been informed by their Christmas tree wholesaler that they will not be able to supply trees this year due to damage from an early frost. This fundraiser typically raises $6,000 for the fire companies. 

“We hope that next year we will see you all again,” says Swarthmore Fire & Protective Association Vice President Rick Lee.
