For the twelfth year in a row, WOS sponsored the Blank Children’s Hospital Festival of Trees & Lights. The event, held at the Iowa Events Center, is the largest fundraiser for hospital’s programming and is a central Iowa tradition to kick off the holiday season. As a sponsor, WOS decorated a holiday vignette to be on display at the event, complete with a tree, fireplace display, and wreath. In addition, WOS offered a holiday lighting gift certificate to the silent auction and employees volunteered their time delivering decorated trees to recipients.
