The Governor and First Lady, Lori Otter, take time out from
their schedules on the day before Thanksgiving to decorate the
state Christmas tree. The 60 foot tall spruce tree is located at the southeast corner of the Borah property, on the corner of Capitol and Bannock. This is a live tree, and an extra effort will be implemented to protect it.

Using LED’s the cost is less than $1 per day. |
