For 30 years, one group has sold Christmas trees to raise money for a good cause.
Boy Scout Troop 63 set up shot just outside of Barboursville for their annual Christmas tree sale. The money raised will help fund their summer camp and will offset the financial burden for the scouts to attend.
"A lot of boy scouts need help with finances and this is a good way to help because it goes directly to the scouts," Matt Socrey from Troop 63 said.
This year, they have a little over 400 trees that they will sell until they are gone. Trees will be on sale seven days a week. They are located at the River Park Plaza outside of Barboursville.
