To our valued family, friends and community members:

Thank you for participating with us with our first foray into the Operation Christmas Child Shoebox Gift program. All 96 of the shoeboxes we purchased were distributed amongst our members, the auxiliary, friends, family and you ... our community supporters.

Now, we need those filled boxes returned by the end of tomorrow so that we can transport them to their next stop on Sunday. Don't forget to mark the labels and adhere them to the top of your boxes. Quite a few of us should be around unloading Christmas Trees at around 3:00 PM and you can bring them by or really, you can drop them off by the back door any time you're available to do so. Remember, we're 100% volunteer so we can't guarantee anyone will be there to open the door if you ring the bell.

One last thank you and a wish of hope as we begin this Holiday Season with Thanksgiving. God bless and enjoy!
