Toy Store
December 5, 2009
 
Toys have been coming in at a steady pace and have been sorted by age group.  At this time we have filled the Infant- 2 year age group. In order to provide two toys for each child we still need


16 in the 3-5 year group
69 in the 6-9 year group
89 in the 10-12 year group

Walmart and Target seem to be in competition for shopping $'s this year and are having better early prices than in the past.  Walgreens still has buy two at $6.99 and get one free.  We have one more week to collect toys before we shop to fill in the gaps.
 
We are enlisting volunteers to help on Friday Dec. 4th from 1:00-4:00pm. to set up all areas and Saturday Dec.5th from 8:30am until noon to man the stations.
