Celebrate your favorite sports teams and mixed in a little holiday cheer tomorrow!
Our annual Holiday Shop is next week from 12/9-12/13. We are still in need of volunteers to help us run the shop. If you are an approved volunteer and would like to help, please take a look at the Sign-Up genius attached for a time that works best for you. For better navigation, open the link on a computer so it's easier to read on a larger screen. It's a full week of volunteering from 9am-2pm and the Hoopla on 12/13 at 6pm so we need all the help we can get. There are still plenty of available spots towards the end of the week. We want to give these kiddos the best shopping experience possible, and it starts with us!
