Summary[edit]
| Description | The Capitol Christmas Tree lighting ceremony was held on Tuesday, December 6, 2011 on the West lawn of the U. S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. In 1970 the Architect of the Capitol approached the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service for assistance in providing a Capitol Christmas Tree; and since then, it has been an honor for one of our country’s National Forests to produce a tree for the holiday’s. 2011 will be the fourth time California has contributed the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree. Known as "The People’s Tree", the 2011 Capitol Christmas Tree is a 63 ft., 118 year old, Sierra White Fir harvested from the Stanislaus National Forest in the Central Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. During the seven day tour of California in November citizens collected non-perishable food items to demonstrate the goodwill and generosity of California's people to share with those less fortunate during the holiday season.
