ENID, OK — The whopping 140’ tall, fresh-cut Christmas tree, “Christ Tree,” will be arriving and will make its glorious debut on October 13, 2021, at the estimated time of 6 p.m. CST. Please note, this is subject to change due to unexpected travel occurrences. For the most real-time updates regarding the tree’s arrival as it makes its journey, please visit the official Facebook page for The One Enid at www.facebook.com/TheOneEnid.
The One executive committee, community leaders and volunteers invite and encourage spectators to gather for a public, family-friendly event at the Stride Bank Center lot, south of the arena located at 301 S. Independence. This fun, free-admission event will celebrate our crew’s safe arrival and properly welcome ‘Christ Tree’; the tree will be officially craned into its annual location the following day, Thursday, October 14.
Vanessa's Food Truck and Catering, authentic Mexican food, and Scoops Ice Cream Truck will be onsite for your dinner needs and a sweet treat. Locally owned, Leonardo's Children's Museum will set up and offer a kid-friendly activity to help create wooden Christmas decorations.
The “Christ Tree” will be trucked in from just outside the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, from an area called McCloud Flats in California to its official location in downtown Enid, Oklahoma, to kick off the inaugural, memorable event experience, The One.

What was the cost of the Christ Tree from California & shipping costs? How long will it last before having to be removed? What is the meaning of the Angel Wings? I have heard different stories which were different but very beautiful about a young girl who passed away. This being in remembrance of her!
