Roseau Times-Region - Serving Roseau County for over 100 Years - The Official Roseau County Newspaper

Plans are well underway for the fifth Annual Indoor Christmas Tree Walk, scheduled to open on the evening of November 22. The tree walk will be held at the Roseau County Museum located in the Roseau City Center.

In years past, people have decorated our trees with snowflakes, candy canes, angels, bows, pinecones, and antique ornaments. We have also had teddy bears, paintbrushes, homemade décor, chalk-painted ornaments, shotgun shells, books, and more. 

Here is your chance to contribute your imagination and decorate a tree to be viewed by all that visit the museum over the holidays. We invite people of all ages, groups, organizations, businesses, daycares, etc., to help decorate the museum with your decorating skills. As mentioned above, the decorations can be handmade, bought, recycled, you name it. They can tell your organization's story, advertise your business, or in some other creative way. 

We have several artificial trees of various sizes and lights available on a first-come basis. Or, you may choose to bring your artificial tree of any size and light. 

We will be accepting registrations until November 17; registrants must decorate the tree by November 20. Registration forms can be picked up at the museum or found online at roseaucohistoricalsociety.org. Visitors will be able to vote for their favorite trees by placing money in boxes at each tree. The top three voted trees will win a cash prize. All proceeds from the boxes will benefit the Roseau County Historical Society's mission to collect, preserve, and share the county's history. 

The opening event will coincide with an evening program by the O'Neil Family and a soup and sandwich meal. 

If you have any questions or would like to register, please get in touch with us. You can reach the Roseau County Historical Society at 218-463-1918 or
