STERLING, Va.--(Business Wire)--
Once again the American public will have the opportunity to track the 2009
Capitol Christmas Tree as it travels from Arizona to the front lawn of the U.S.
Capitol in Washington, D.C., via SkyBitz tracking solutions.

SkyBitz, the leading remote asset tracking and information management service
provider, will attach a mobile tracking unit to the trailer carrying the 85-foot
blue spruce as it crosses the country from Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest in
Arizona using SkyBitz`s award-winning GLS asset tracking services. The tracking
data, complete with a detailed street-level map of the most recent location,
will be accessible to the general public on the company's Web site,
www.trackthetree.com, beginning November 10.

"We are excited to provide this unique and interactive experience for everyone,
young and old, to get engaged in this event and the activities and history that
surround it," said SkyBitz Senior Vice President of Marketing Craig Montgomery.

The Capitol Christmas Tree is scheduled to leave Eagar, Ariz., on November 10
and will tour the state of Arizona for ten days before visiting: Amarillo,
Texas; Tulsa, Okla.; Branson, Mo.; Nashville, Tenn.; Roanoke, Va.; and Chevy
Chase, Md. The tree`s journey will culminate at the U.S. Capitol Building on
November 30, with the lighting ceremony to take place the week of December 7.
The SkyBitz tracking solution and interactive Web site will detail this journey
every step of the way.

Since 1970, Congress has asked a different National Forest to provide "the
People`s Tree" - complete with all the trimmings - as a gift to our nation each
holiday season. This year marks the first time Arizona has provided the Capitol
Christmas Tree.
