Okay so looking at the list above. I have wooden 92 ornament that is a Christmas tree and a 93 ornament that was a Christmas ball. I thought I was missing a some from years prior to this. Are the ones listed just the pewter ones?

Yep, this is the list for the Pewter Christmas Ornaments.

There is a wooden 92 Christmas tree on Ebay right now.

That's ugly. Glad they went to the pewter ornaments.

Thanks Swoosh. I actually liked the tree. Our dog chewed off part of the bottom while we were at mass one year. The 93 ball was lame.

Personal preference of course. Perhaps "ugly" was too harsh of word choice.

LOL.. No Swoosh, I think this time you were right on the money,,,

I looked at it and said WOW!, that's bad..!!

Of course, we are spoiled with the details of the Pewter pieces..

I couldn't find it on ebay. It's simple but it's really not that ugly. Maybe one of those Charlie Brown Christmas ornaments. The ball the next year might be considered that. Anyone know what they gave out before 1992?

Swoosh · November 06, 2014, 12:27:00 PM

The park didn't start having a Christmas festival until 1991 so my guess is nothing.

My family collected the Christmas ball ornaments over the years. This was when each year, they had a specific theme...Angels, Snowmen, joy to the world, etc etc. All through the 90's and early 00's they had a specific theme with matching ball ornaments and other merchandise such as sweatshirts. These ball ornaments were purchased and not given away as any sort of prize, but we purchased one every year as they were dated. My mom was actually sad when they did away with the themes and ornaments; guess they ran out of ideas.

OK! Right... Sorry... Not Ugly, But very plain and simple.... My bad..

Thanks Swoosh, I didn't realize we had only missed on Christmas season at SDC. Sanddunerider? Do I detect sarcasm here? Thanks for the link. That is similar but not my 92 ornament. It was not as faded and had another skinnier wooded frame around the big tree. Kind of orbited it. Of course since the dog chewed off the bottom no more orbits for me. But I will post a picture when and if my decorations make it out of the attic. DollarCityBoy, we did not pay for the ball. It was given to us and all it says is 1993 on one side and Silver Dollar City on the other.

So... I completed my collection tonight as I scored the Wilderness Church after all these years. Super excited to have the complete pewter ornament collection now.

sanddunerider · February 19, 2015, 03:38:56 PM

grats to you Swoosh.. always nice to complete a "goal".

biscuitcreek · February 20, 2015, 08:38:23 PM

Congrats, Swoosh! Would also like to have the Wilderness Church.

I think I have a couple of these somewhere. Thought I saw them in the bottom of a ornament box when we were decorating the tree last year. Have not used them in years. Maybe when I break out the decorations for next year I will find them.
