Christmas Tree Pickup Fundraiser 2023/2024

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from the Bolton Volunteer Fire Association. We are hosting our annual Christmas tree pickup fundraiser again this year. We will be picking trees up on December 30th 2023 and January 6th 2024.

Donations through fundraisers like the Christmas tree pickup help with events such as Touch-a-Truck and the Santa Parade. This past year was a big year for Bolton Volunteer Fire Association, as we hosted the 96th Annual Wachusett Muster. This event brought firefighters and families from the North Central Massachusetts area to watch firefighters compete in events that test their skills and speed.  It was a great day of camaraderie for the firefighters and fun for all of the spectators. This event was funded 100% by the Bolton Volunteer Fire Association.
