Thank you to Rotary Interact club members Nicole Morgan, Alanna Pyke, Marina Oakes, and Eric McCarthy for wrapping gifts, and Chase Cameron, Paige Perry and Erin McCarthy for assisting vendors with their products to their cars and helping with tear down of tables.

Thank you to Mr. and Mrs. Claus for stopping by for a visit and spending time with everyone to ensure we were ready for a wonderful Christmas.

Thank you to MBGC Director Debra Ann Donatto and the BGC Elves for singing Christmas Carols, and MBGC President Tim Currier and Board member Tim Lashomb for making sure we had enough tables! Also thank you to the Massena Moose Lodge for allowing us to hold the fundraiser there. Lastly, I would personally like to thank Tonya Moulton for all of her assistance to help line up vendors and all aspects of putting on this event for the 2nd year; we could not have done it without you!

Over all the day could not have been a success without everyone. Thank you, Thank you, thank you!
