CURRENT BUSINESS

Jingle Bell Bounce – having it on 2 different nights was a success. We made approx. $250 profit combined.

Secret Santa Shop – The shop made approx. $1100 profit this year, which was higher than last year. Some of the expense was the ornaments we purchased that arrived late, but we will be able to sell them next year for a complete profit. We have been shopping after Christmas sales and will be attending Darlington Warehouse next year for more stock.

Donuts With Santa – Chairperson Lisa Murry was absent, but sent in a report. Attendance was approx. 100. We lost about $100 this year. We purchased a gift card ($25) for a Santa that was a fill-in after a family emergency with our current Santa. Lisa would like to start purchasing supplies for next year’s event now at the clearance prices.
