On this heart-warming episode of the Utah Fan Club Podcast, Steph and rFan Club Recruiter Sandi Shoell welcome Festival of Trees Chairwoman Shauna Davis and Co-Chair Elaina Gillespie for a behind-the-scenes look at one of Utah’s most beloved holiday traditions benefiting Primary Children’s Hospital.
We talk origin story (from 60 trees to hundreds), the army of 30,000 volunteers, and the magic that fills 220,000 square feet with handcrafted trees, quilts, centerpieces, gingerbread, and the famous fudge and cinnamon rolls—all to fund charity care, music therapy, child life services, and family support. You’ll hear tender stories, delivery-day surprises, how kids can make ornaments in the Kids’ Corner, and exactly how your tickets, gifts, and even “a few pennies” ripple into real help for families across the Intermountain West.
