9th Annual Christmas Tree Perty
Posted by Nancy W on December 12, 2015, 8:13 pm
Thank you so much to everyone who donated and came out to the 9th Annual Christmas Tree Party at Magnolia’s! It was a ton of fun and all for a great cause! 83 people attended, 38 trees were sold, and a total of $11,859 pesos raised with the trees! A huge thank you to Magnolia’s for hosting and providing such amazing food, and to all the people who made the event happen: June, Brian & Jeanne, Aby, Gaby Martinez, Malena and the many people who donated trees! The funds will be used to repair hurricane damage at Activos. They had both of their ‘cortinas’ (the doors which are like garage doors) blow out, all the mirrors blew off the walls upstairs, and the palapa had some holes ripped in it. As prices are kept at a minimum to encourage community members to join and be active, there are not a lot of funds for extras like these repairs! This fundraiser means a lot to the ongoing programming of the gym! Vern and Elke took some great photos last night and have the album on facebook already if you’d like to see some pictures. We also have an album on the Activos page here. | ------------------------Re: 9th Annual Christmas Tree Perty

Have to say...I really look forward to this event every year! It's always crowded and noisey and everyone seems to be in good cheer, thanks in great part to Magnolia's great staff and tasty edibles! So thank you to all for providing your great trees and generous energy to jump start the holiday season!
