National Christmas Tree
Since the beginning of time, the Bowersox family dreamed of someday being chosen to present the White House Christmas Tree to the United States First Lady, Mrs. Laura Bush. The dream became reality on November 28, 2001 when the Bowersox family was crowned the National Christmas Tree Association Grand Champions. Congratulations to the Bowersox family, the First Lady and to the nation of America for being blessed to see this wonderful marvel.
