A month of giving

giving-tree-picture

By now you have probably seen the tree by the dining room or the clotheslines hanging in your break room with paper mittens, coats, snow pants, and socks, along with other tags on them.  These items are needed for families or students in our area and are part of our annual Giving Tree and Winter Gear Drive service events.

Please bring your donated items to Materials Management by December 16th.

Thank you!

Thanks to these Goldie Classic volunteers!

Thank you to Danna Woods, Julie Ray, Karen Renaud and Melanie Bergstadt for volunteering at the Goldie Classic Golf Tournament on Saturday, September 10th.  FirstLight hosted a game that raised money for the American Cancer Society.

The game consisted of trying to chip a ball into toilet seats or a commode for the chance to win a Yeti cooler.  Everyone who played received a ticket in the drawing.  Those who chipped a ball in a toilet received extra tickets in the drawing.  SO MUCH FUN and a great way to promote getting your colonoscopy!
