THANK YOU!
The 2011 Christmas Fair was a giant success. Hundreds of visitors passed through in the course of 12 hours - including many repeat visits from the children who returned after school. Santa's visit helped add to the excitement!
Many thanks to Christine Saffran and JoAnne Gardella who co-chaired this event with the support of many volunteers including the Wednesday Craft Moms. |

BLOOD DRIVE RESULTS
The results are in! We had a much better turn out than I expected. Although 212 people signed up from the phone calls and the after Mass sign ups. That usually translates into approx. 106 people showing up. We had a lot of people show up this time without appointments and those who made appointments were able to honor them. This is great news and very encouraging! 175 signed in at the door to donate 158 Donors were able to give 17 Donors were Medically Deferred Many thanks to Tom Binder who coordinates this effort twice a year and for the countless volunteers who assist with the Blood Drive. |
