Nov. 14 Holiday Party/Auction to Benefit Globe Santa

We've decided to make Globe Santa the beneficiary of proceeds from our 3rd annual craft/bake sale and holiday party on Sunday, November 14. We'll be meeting at the home of Jean L. in Andover, Massachusetts at 2:30 p.m. for hot cider, desserts, socializing, and a silent auction of homemade crafts and bake items. Please don't be intimidated by the idea of making something for the sale -- we don't need anything fancy (the highest bid in the past was around $15) -- typical items include baked goods, jams, gift tags and holiday cards, candy wreaths, gifts in jars (cookie mixes, etc.), holiday ornaments, embroidered bookmarks, decorated votives, and so on. There are plenty of ideas on the internet. But, if you aren't handy and don't bake, just come along, chat with sisters, and bid on items to raise funds for a Choose Children charity! Contact Jan at bostonalphaxi@comcast.net for details and directions.
