also, do you know if there is a $ value associated?
Unwrapped is O.K. I’m told you can take gifts to the Garfield Community Center and they will do the wrapping; also told there are no particular monetary value guidelines. 684-4788 is the phone number for the Garfield Community Center which may be able to answer other unanswered questions.
i’ve called a few times and gotten a random vmail.
no worries. i’ll just drop something by later today.
Hopefully they’ve met their gift needs by now.
Just talked to them they said, “Bring them” so wanted to let you know they are still in need. They did mention as soon as possible because they are trying to get everything setup before 6:30.
