What a joy to be part of this community at Christmas time. The Lone Star Corral, the SKP park where we are, does something special for the local elementary school children each year. It's a poor, rural area. Usually we arrive after it's all over, but this year we are fortunate to be able to take part. Last Monday the children came to the club house and performed A Bug's Christmas for us. What a wonderful group of well behaved children. For the last few weeks, the collection of gifts for the 154 children has been growing. The members here baked large quantities of cookies, bought candy, made crayon boxes, jewelry boxes, and pencil boxes and donated small toys and much needed school supplies. Thursday we packaged the gift bags and stockings and made the delivery on Friday.

Making the delivery was the best. It was awesome to be representing the many wonderful people in our park. Thanks Kay for sharing your pictures.
