It's everyone that donated who should get the praise, the amounts donated were astounding! Beautifully done guys!!!

Change of plans for the food shop and delivery of all the goods; Looks like James and I will have Huricane Rylie along for the ride and if this is the case, shopping needs to be swiftly executed. If memory serves the cart(s) fill up mighty quick. Another person (or 2 ) to join us on the shop, and humping the goods in and out of the cars(s) to under the Fam's tree etc, would be great! Let us know if you're available.

Great job everyone, Big thanks to Cindy and James for all their hard work. The ASF (and anyone else who helped) members deserve a big pat on the back for all they have done to make this a Merry Xmas.

I have a meeting at 1030am Sat but if no one else can help I'll change my plans. Let me know.
Geoff.

Alright - All those interested in helping to shop meet at the IHOP on the langley Bypass at 08:30, we'll have breaky and plan the attack there.

For delivery I would like to make it low key outta respect for the family asking for a hand during this expensive time of year, maybe a volunteer or 2 would be cool for delivery, not a whole posse.

Alright mission Accomplished!!!

We did a mad shop this morning, thanks to those that came out and helped!!! When it was all said and done there was a mountain of food,Gift Cert's and presents for the entire family. It really puts things into perspective when you visit someone in the position this family is and it make you realize how good things are and makes you thankful for what you have.

I truly mean this when I say it that you all are amazing for how you pull together, I couldn't imagine being part of any other community and I am grateful to call this my VW family. On behalf of the family we made a merry christmas for this year thank you all, you should all be proud.

I would like to thank James and Cindy for making this all happen for a family in need.

These days I seem to have a bit more money than time.  It takes time and effort to gather all the funds and stuff, do all the shopping, and present all the goodies.

Mad props to the both of you and everyone who stuck in thier two cents.  It makes me feel real good around this time of year.

Merry Christmas all!
