Those interested in donating a decorated wreath are encouraged to drop them by the Port of Everett Administration office by Monday, Nov. 21. The wreaths will be displayed at local waterfront restaurants for viewing and early bidding Nov. 22 – Dec. 2, with final bidding during Holiday on the Bay until 4 p.m. All proceeds will benefit Marine Toys for Tots.
