This is an inaugural event for Lansing, and is sponsored by the Lost Province Center for Cultural Arts. This event is intriguing, to say the least, and according to center director Kevin Little, came about after one of the center’s board members visited Austria a couple of Christmases ago, learning of their tradition of pitching trees as a competition. “We are the Christmas tree capital, after all,” he notes. Registration is free, and involves some specific rules, so be sure to pay attention. lostprovincearts.org
