American Tobacco is the busiest workshop this side of the North Pole!
The Jingle Bull Bash, our season-long celebration, features high energy events both familiar and totally fresh. Don’t miss these Jingle Bull marquee moments:
The all-new Triangle Christmas Tree Challenge and Kringle Mingle Celebration: The Challenge invites non-profits and supporters to decorate one of 50 Christmas trees to be displayed on campus throughout the Jingle Bull Bash. Six prizes -- ranging from $1,000 to $5,000 -- await the non-profits behind the trees deemed “best decorated.”
Fans will select the top three winners by texting their votes starting at 8 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 3 through Dec. 16 (standard rates may apply). On the final day of voting -- Thursday, Dec. 16 -- all-star judges will select an overall favorite as nonprofits, their supporters and fun-seekers cheer for their picks at the Kringle Mingle.
A complete list of the Tree Challenge’s nonprofits is below. Come on out on Thursday, Dec. 16, and enjoy not only the trees, but music, hot cocoa and good friends!
You can view the trees at WRAL.com. WRAL News on FOX 50 will announce the winners on Friday, Dec. 17th. The Tree Challenge is brought to you by FOX 50, WRAL.com, Duke Energy and the Triangle Community Foundation.
