Christmas Delivery

I would like to give a special thank you to Jim Sterner for providing the music on Saturday for the drive-thru.  Jim contacted me and volunteered to play Christmas music for the 2 hour drive thru.  He is a new member and his music put all of us in the Christmas spirit!

I would like to give some special thanks to our Christmas Family Chairperson, Karen Young, and her team of Jean Brandt and Rich Young for helping shop for clothes and toys for our seven kids.  It was quite a lot of work to find the items the children requested.  Karen & Jean also wrapped all the gifts.  It took hours to complete the wrapping not to mention the shopping.  The ODSC is going to provide these kids with a wonderful Christmas.

On Sunday, the following volunteers helped sort and box up all the food to be given to the families of the kids:  Joe and Beth Cornwall, Wayne Baldwin, Rick Kosko, Sue Wehner, Lori and John Setzer, Donna and Bernie Williams, Rich & Karen Young, and Monica Powell.

Monday, we delivered the food and gifts to the school where the parents will pick them up.  Karen & Rich Young, Wayne Baldwin, Lori and John Setzer, Donna and Bernie Williams and I also delivered the surplus food to North Strand Helping Hands to help other families in need.  Again, thanks to all of you.

Below is a picture of the quantity of food and Christmas gifts for our families.  It was awesome!  Thank you so much.
 
Merry Christmas to our wonderful shag family,
Billy Powell
