Thank You!!





 As of Thursday 12/13 this is what I know the schedule to be:   Please call Pat or Carl if you need to make a change or you would like to help.  


Thank You! 

  Because we are a non-profit organization the Mall has offered us an excellent opportunity to raise money.  On Dec 14 and 15th we will operate the gift wrapping area which will be setup right next to where we will be running our trains.  The hours are the same as ours. The Mall provides all the supplies.  Paper, tape, bows, boxes. Gift wrapping is free but there is a sign that suggests donation amounts.  Here is the exciting part for us.  Because this is an official fund raising activity we are allowed to keep all the money that is donated for wrapping gifts.  The Mall estimates that we would receive $3,000 per day! We have never conducted a fund raiser like this but the  Board of Directors has recommended that we pursue the opportunity and contact members and family members to help raise volunteers.
