QGET CHRISTMAS PARTY 

December 8th, 2022
Season of Service & Giving

Children’s Advocancy Center is the focus of our giving this year.  Our program will feature Deanna Sims the Chief Development Officer of CAC.  
She will give us a video tour of their amazing facility and share what happens when a child is removed from the home.   Our Show and Tell will be a parade of all the items you have made and brought for donation to this very worthwhile organization


A couple of opportunities for each member or Bee to make a donation item For Children’s Advocancy Center.

                                                          1.  lap quilt for a boy or girl aged 2 to 18




​


                                                          2.  a huggable pillow (small carry around, heart, flower, etc.)



                                                           3.  a stuffed animal



             

                                                          4.  pillowcase/bag w/draw strings (Corey Starkey made – pattern on our website)

​
Next:  each member makes a nice Christmas ornament (or purchase if you run out of time) for a fun story game.  Each member will wind up with an ornament and a parade of these items and who made them will end our party.











We will have a potluck meal, a photo backdrop for pictures with your Bee or best friend.  

And more games and prizes.
